For an extra layer of flavor, marinate the chicken tenders in the tangy sauce for at least 30 minutes before baking. Adjust the amount of Sriracha to suit your spice preference. For a milder flavor, start with 1/2 teaspoon and gradually increase to taste. Serve these chicken tenders with a side of steamed rice, roasted vegetables, or a crisp salad for a complete and satisfying meal. To ensure even cooking, use chicken tenders of uniform thickness. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until warmed through.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly coat with nonstick spray. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
02
StepIn a small bowl, whisk together the chili sauce, honey, lime juice, dried onion, brown sugar, garlic, and Sriracha. Allow the sauce to rest for 5 minutes, allowing the dried onion to soften and the flavors to meld. (Prep time: 7 minutes)
03
StepArrange the chicken tenders in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Brush generously with a thin layer of the tangy sauce. (Prep time: 3 minutes)
04
StepBake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush the remaining sauce over the chicken tenders, ensuring they are evenly coated. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should register at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). (Cook time: 15 minutes)
