Instructions

To make the chicken:

  1. Pat dry the chicken with a paper towel.
  2. In a shallow dish, combine flour, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. Dredge the chicken tenders in the flour mixture and coat evenly on both sides.
  3. Heat a large skillet with oil and butter, add the chicken tenders and sear the chicken to golden on both sides for about 3-5 minutes.
  4. When chicken is cooked through, remove to a plate and set aside.

To make the sauce:

  1. Add the butter to the same skillet you cooked the chicken in and let melt.
  2. Add the minced garlic and cook for a minute. Stir in the soy sauce, honey, sriracha, and white vinegar. Allow the sauce to simmer for 1-2 minutes until it thickens. Sprinkle the sauce with red chili flakes.
  3. Transfer the chicken tenders back to the skillet and toss the chicken to coat in the sauce. Cook for 1 minute to reheat the chicken.
  4. Garnish the chicken tenders with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.

Notes

  • To make a saucier garlic chicken add ¼ cup of water while making the sauce.
  • The same recipe can be used to make chicken thighs and breasts.
  • We like to serve these chicken tenders over rice and spoon any extra sauce over the top.
