Notes

Tips for Success

Cook the chicken over medium heat to prevent the honey from burning.
Do not pour leftover marinade into the skillet—it will burn due to the honey content.
Use a nonstick or well-seasoned skillet for best results.
Serve with your favorite dipping sauce for extra flavor.

How to Store

Store leftover chicken tenders in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet or microwave until warmed through.
