This recipe was delicious! My husband raved about it and wanted more! He’s enjoying this new healthier way of eating too which makes it great for both of us!
These are the best homemade chicken tenders I’ve ever had! Yum!
Instead of the oven we cook them in the air fryer. My 17 yr old loves them.
I can’t even stand how good these were. Suprassed expectations! My teens ask for them again and again!
