Roots of a Southern Kitchen

This is one of my favorite things to make when I’m craving some saucy chicken tenders! The sweet and spicy honey pairs with the savory chicken perfectly.

Ingredients:

• 2 pounds chicken tenderloins
• 1 cup breadcrumbs
• 1/2 T garlic powder
• 1/2 T onion powder
• 1/4 cup flour
• 2-3 beaten eggs
• Salt to taste

For sauce:

• 1/2 cup hot honey
• 3 T hot sauce
• 2 T melted butter

Steps:

1. Mix flour, seasonings, and breadcrumbs in a bowl and salt to your preference. Bread chicken in flour mixture, egg, then flour mixture again.
2. Fry chicken in about 1 inch of oil. Flip halfway through.
3. As soon as chicken is finished, remove from grease and toss in hot honey sauce.
