Provided by dorchuk

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 to 5 chicken breasts, cut into pieces or 12 chicken tenderloins
1 (8 ounce) bottle Italian dressing, about 1 cup
2 teaspoons fresh or bottled lime juice
4 teaspoons honey

Steps:

  • Cut each chicken breast into strips or use tenderloins pieces. If using tenderloins cut and remove the white tendon off each end. In a bowl that has a cover or large Ziploc bag add the dressing, lime juice and honey; mix to combine. Add the chicken and mix to coat all the pieces. Marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Remove chicken from the refrigerator and add to a larger skillet (marinade and chicken). Braise the tenders in a non-stick pan until golden brown in color, but not dry. Start the stove temperature at medium high to get things going. After it comes to a boil reduce the heat to low-medium and continue cooking. You just want them to simmer until all the liquid has cooked down. You still want a bit of glaze left in the pan. When chicken is done remove and serve. Cooking time: 40-45 minutes

Time 2h10m

Yield 8-10 chicken strips, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 lb chicken breast, cut into strips
1/2 cup Italian dressing
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice

1/4 cup soy sauce

Steps:

  • Heat an inside grill such as a george foreman grill or heat a skillet on the stovetop and braise chicken strips until golden brown.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • To ensure the chicken is cooked thoroughly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C).
  • For a crispier breading, double coat the chicken tenders in the flour mixture and egg wash.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • For a healthier version of the recipe, you can bake the chicken tenders in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until cooked through.
  • Serve the chicken tenders with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing, honey mustard, or barbecue sauce.
