How to Make Sticky Sesame Chicken Tenders
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large, shallow baking pan with foil and spray with cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, and a pinch of cayenne pepper.
- Add 1 pound chicken tenders to the bowl and toss to coat evenly. Ensure all chicken is fully coated in sauce.
- Arrange the chicken tenders in a single layer on the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is sticky and caramelized. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
- Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds and 1/4 cup chopped green onions before serving. Enjoy!
