Healthy Sriracha and Honey Chicken Tenders

Packed with flavor, not your regular tenders. Remember to place it in a refrigerator, couple of hours is enough if you can't wait overnight.

Ingredients:
1 lb of boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into tender strips
1 cu of plain Greek Yogurt (I like Cabot)
1/4 cup milk
1 tbs soy sauce
1 tbs sriracha 
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup flour
1 1/4 cups plain bread crumbs
For your sauce: 
2 1/2 tsp minced ginger root
3 cloves of minced garlic  
1 1/2 cups chicken stock  
1/3 cup soy sauce  
2 tbs cornstarch  
2 tsp garlic chili sauce ( you can find this in the Asian isle at most grocery stores)  
1/4 cup brown sugar, loosely packed  
1 tbs sesame oil  
1 tbs peanut oil
Chili sauce, duck sauce, or sweet and sour sauce for serving.... or make an extra batch of General Tso's sauce to dip

Directions:
  1. To prepare your chicken, slice breasts into thin tenders.
  2. In a large Ziploc bagadd 1 cup Greek yogurt, milk, soy sauce, 1 tbs sriracha, and salt. Shake/Mix (make sure it's zipped!) until combined. 
  3. Add in chicken tenders, give a shake to evenly coat.
  4. Place in the refrigerator overnight. 
  5. Preheat oven to 375.
  6. Place, flour, bread crumbs and salt in a shallow dish ( I use a pie plate).
  7. Give the mixture a stir with a fork. 
  8. Remove chicken from marinade, (discard leftover Greek yogurt mixture), and roll chicken pieces in the coating. 
  9. Place tenders  on a greased baking sheet. 
  10. Bake for about 15 minutes or until crisp, and golden. 
  11. While they are baking prepare your sauce. 
  12. In a  sauce pan, add sesame oil and peanut oil with your garlic and ginger. Saute until fragrant.  
  13. Mix in remaining sauce ingredients and whisk constantly over medium high heat, until it comes to a low boil. 
  14. Remove sauce from heat, and toss cooked chicken tenders in it to evenly coat.
  15. Return to the oven and bake for another 5 minutes. 
  16. Serve with dipping sauce of your choice.
