2 tsps sea salt, divided
2 tsps black pepper, divided
2 tsps smoked paprika, divided
2 tsps garlic powder, divided
2 tsps onion powder, divided
2 tsps dried parsley, divided
2 tsps dried thyme, divided
2 tsps dried oregano, divided
2 tsps dried basil, divided
¼ cup buffalo sauce (organic, store-bought or homemade)
2 large organic eggs, beaten
¼ cup unsweetened almond milk (or whole milk)
½ cup organic all-purpose flour
2 cups organic cornflakes, crushed
1 cup breadcrumbs (you can make your own seasoned toasted panko bread crumbs)
For the Sauce:
2 cups buffalo sauce (organic)
2 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tbsp raw honey (organic)
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Season the Chicken:
In a large bowl, combine the chicken strips with 1 tsp sea salt, 1 tsp black pepper, 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp onion powder, 1 tsp dried parsley, 1 tsp dried thyme, 1 tsp dried oregano, and 1 tsp dried basil. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly.
Prepare the Breading Station:
In one bowl, combine the flour with the remaining seasonings. In a second bowl, whisk together the beaten eggs and almond milk. In a third bowl, mix the crushed cornflakes and breadcrumbs.
Bread the Chicken:
Dredge each chicken strip in the seasoned flour, then dip it into the egg mixture, and finally coat it with the cornflake and breadcrumb mixture. Place the breaded tenders on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy.
Make the Sauce:
In a saucepan, combine the buffalo sauce, unsalted butter, and raw honey. Heat over medium heat until the butter is melted and the sauce is well combined.
Toss the Tenders:
Once the chicken tenders are done baking, toss them in the buffalo sauce until well coated.
Serve:
Serve the crispy buffalo chicken tenders with your favorite dipping sauce, celery sticks, and carrots!
