Directions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a large sheet pan with a heavy coating of cooking spray.
  • Season chicken in a medium bowl. Toss and coat with piri piri. Set aside.
  • Place the coating ingredients in a plastic bag and shake well to blend.
  • Beat the egg wash ingredients in a small bowl until well incorporated.
  • Dredge 3 or 4 pieces of chicken at a time in egg wash. Shake off excess then place in plastic bag. Shake to coat evenly.
  • Place tenders evenly on sheet pan.
  • Spray tops of chicken with cooking spray.
  • Cook for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Cut into one piece. Chicken should not be pink. Turn over and cook a few minutes longer to achieve a darker crispy color on all sides if desired
  • Mix the hot sauce with the butter and cook for 1 minute to blend flavors. Make a double batch if you like it really HOT!
  • Enjoy!
