BUFFALO HOT CHICKEN WINGS OR TENDERS
This is adapted from a diabetic hot wings recipe that I came across while searching for something my husband would like. I've always wondered where the term "Buffalo hot wings" came from and I learned that the traditional hot sauce was created over 45 years in a Buffalo, New York pub! You can honor the Buffalo tradition by serving blue cheese dressing as your dipping sauce...use a low-fat or a fat-free dressing if you are trying to eat healthier. And as you know, the chihcken tenders have less fat than the wings. I hope you will try this recipe and let me know what you think!

Steps:
- Sprinkle the onion and garlic powders, salt and pepper on the chicken pieces.
- In a medium skillet, melt the margarine.
- Add chicken and brown over medium heat about 3-4 minutes for each side. Be sure to brown well as that will ensure you taste the seasonings.
- While chicken is browning, mix together the hot red pepper sauce, apple cider vinegar and water.
- When both sides of chicken are brown, sprinkle the sauce mixture over the chicken pieces. Continue cooking 4-5 minutes, turning chicken midway.
- After about 5 minutes, turn the heat to medium high; cook about 2 minutes until the sauce is completely reduced and the chicken is really coated with the sauce.
- Note: Cook time will vary with the size of your chicken pieces. Smaller pieces will take less time.

Tips
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also cook the chicken until the juices run clear when pierced with a fork.
- For a crispy coating, make sure to double-coat the chicken in the flour mixture.
- Don't overcrowd the chicken in the pan when frying. This will cause the chicken to steam instead of fry.
- Serve the chicken tenders with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing, honey mustard, or barbecue sauce.
