Ingredients

peanut oil, for frying
2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
3 eggs
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup Dijon mustard
1/2 cup honey
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lemon juice
salt and pepper

Steps:

Cut the chicken breasts into long strips and set aside.
Beat the 3 eggs in a separate bowl and measure the flour into another separate dish.
Measure the panko into a pie plate or shallow bowl and season with garlic powder, lemon-pepper, cayenne, salt and pepper.
Dip the chicken strips into the flour, the beaten egg and then dredge them into the seasoned panko.
Fry in the hot peanut oil for 6 to 8 minutes, until golden brown, and remove to a paper towel lined sheet tray. Serve with honey mustard sauce.

1/2 cup Dijon mustard
1/2 cup honey
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoons lemon juice
Salt and pepper.
Mix all the ingredients in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper. The sauce can be held in the refrigerator for 1 week.

Tips:

To ensure crispy and evenly cooked chicken tenders, start with boneless, skinless chicken breasts sliced into strips, ensuring uniform thickness for even cooking.
Use a combination of flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper for the perfect coating that adheres well to the chicken and adds flavor.
To achieve a golden-brown and crispy exterior, shallow fry the chicken tenders in a pan with hot oil until they are cooked through. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning.
Make the honey-mustard sauce while the chicken cooks, combining honey, prepared yellow mustard, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
Once the chicken tenders are cooked, drain them on paper towels to remove excess oil before tossing them in the honey-mustard sauce to coat them evenly.
Serve the crispy honey-mustard chicken tenders immediately, garnished with chopped parsley or green onions for an extra pop of color and flavor.
