Ingredients
Chicken Tenders
- 1 1/2 pounds chicken tenders or boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into 1/2 inch thick strips
- 2 teaspoons tamari or soy sauce, low sodium
- 1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil toasted
- 1 1/2 teaspoons rice vinegar
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger optional
- 1/2 cup sesame seeds
Sweet Chili Sauce
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 1/4 cup water
- 3-4 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon chili paste such as sambal oelek
- 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon of water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425° F. and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. If using foil spray it with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl combine the tamari (soy sauce), sesame oil, rice vinegar and ginger. Add in the chicken tenders and coat them in the mixture. In a shallow dish such as a pie plate, add the sesame seeds along with salt and pepper to taste.
- Put the chicken tenders into the sesame seeds turning them so that they are coated on all sides. Place them on the baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until cooked through.
- While the chicken is cooking make the sweet chili sauce. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the vinegar, water, honey and sambal oelek. Once the honey is dissolved add in the cornstarch/water slurry. Stir the sauce until it's no longer cloudy and has thickened, approximately 3-5 minutes.
- Garnish the chicken tenders with cilantro or sliced green onions if desired and serve with the sauce.
