ORANGE-GLAZED CHICKEN TENDERS BY MR. FOOD
Fancy Schmancy Dinner from The Best of Mr. Food Cooking Quickies. I usually use boneless, skinless chicken breasts and cut them into strips instead of using tenders and cook longer. Be careful not to let the flour burn. I serve this with mashed potatoes and put some of the yummy sauce on top.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure all your ingredients and utensils are ready. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't miss anything.
- Use Fresh Oranges: Fresh oranges will give your chicken tenders the best flavor. If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use bottled orange juice, but it won't be as good.
- Don't Overcook the Chicken: Chicken tenders are best when they are cooked through but still juicy. Overcooked chicken will be tough and dry.
- Make Sure the Glaze is Sticky: The glaze should be thick and sticky enough to coat the chicken tenders evenly. If it's too thin, it will run off the chicken.
- Serve Immediately: Orange glazed chicken tenders are best served immediately after they are cooked. This will ensure that they are crispy and hot.
Conclusion:
Orange glazed chicken tenders are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and coated in a sweet and tangy orange glaze. Serve them with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, green beans, or rice.
