Being at home with kids for any duration of time I always try and think of different things we can make for lunch time. I mean you can only have sandwiches so many times a day during the week. Coming off of holiday break I made these delicious Baked Chicken Tenders that were coated in Panko. Yes… Panko… YUM!
These tenders are so simple and easy and they take no time at all to bake. Plus, you can make them ahead of time and freeze them before the baking process or eat them right out the oven when you do bake them. Last but not least they are healthier for you too, see there baked not fried.
Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce… you can never go wrong with barbecue, ketchup or some raw honey.
Let’s just say that after I made them they were gobbled up in 5 minutes FLAT!
I think that might be a new record for us Kennedys! HAH!
