>That was my sister’s response to the (organic) chicken tenders I made tonight, “This changes everything!”
I‘ve been dreaming of health-ified chicken tenders for quite some time now, and tonight was the night!
The thing is these babies taste like chicken tenders….and they’re made from only a few clean ingredients:
Organic chicken breasts
(use pressed tofu slices for a vegan option)
light vegan mayo (any light mayo or Greek yogurt will do)
garlic powder
sea salt, pepper
evoo spray
Directions
Preheat oven to 400F
Dice chicken breasts into strips
Thinly coat chicken in mayo (I used ~2T for two large chicken breasts)
Toss 5T nutritional yeast and 1/4 t garlic powder and spread on small plate
Roll/coat chicken in yeast/garlic (add a dash of sea salt, black pepper).
Bake on tinfoil coated/evoo sprayed baking sheet for 15 mins, flip tenders
Cook for an additional 10-15 mins until slightly browned and cooked thoroughly
Dipped in organic ketchup and served with a side of curried cauliflower and roasted green beans…
Try these, immediately. They will change everything, haha.
