Pecan Chicken Strips With Bourbon Dipping Sauce image

I had this appetizer at a potluck last evening and thought they were great. Recipe is courtesy of the hostess, Diane. I think it will be easier to use the chicken tenderloins (tenders) from the grocery to make these and make a pretty presentation.
