Chicken tenders from scratch

...really quick and easy to prepare and seriously yummy!

  • chicken breast cut into strips or chunks
  • multigrain bread mix (or plain flour - the multigrain is tasty especially if it has sunflower seeds in it)
  • seasoning -- paprika, cayenne, any mixed spice (I have used a Penzey's season salt but it is easy to over-salt)
  • milk
  • olive oil or peanut oil (peanut oil doesn't
Mix bread mix or flour with seasoning, salt and pepper (if necessary) in a bowl or deep plate. pour some milk in another bowl. Heat oil in a pan (just enough to cover -- you are sauteing, not deep-frying). Dip chicken first into milk, then bread mix/flour and shake off excess. Saute in oil until golden brown. I usually cut into and check most of the tenders because I get a bit paranoid that the chicken is undercooked.... Serve with anything....broccoli, cauliflower, salad, green beans.
