Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon chili powder
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (I skipped it and used 1/2 teaspoon paprika instead)
1 egg
2 Tablespoons milk
1 lb boneless skinless chicken tenders (I used chicken breast (cut into strips))
1.5 cups panko breadcrumbs
2 Tablespoons olive oil (I also added 1 Tablespoon of butter)
2 large limes (cut into wedges)
1/4 cup honey

Steps:

In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, chili powder, salt, pepper and cayenne (or paprika). Add egg and milk and whisk until smooth.
Add chicken tenders to the flour-egg mixture and toss to coat well.
Place panko breadcrumbs onto a medium size plate. One by one, coat each chicken tender in panko and set onto a clean plate.
Heat up oil and butter in a large pan over medium heat.
Cook chicken until lightly brown, about 2 minutes on each side. Remove onto a plate and cool slightly.
Squeeze the lime juice over chicken and drizzle tender with honey.
Serve.

Easy and fabulous!! Tastes very much like sweet and sour chicken from a good Chinese place. This is from a lady in Iowa and was in the Cooking for 2 magazine. It will be in our regular dinner rotation.
