Spice up your boring chicken routine with chipotle honey crispers

It’s easy to pop frozen chicken fingers into the oven, but there’s something to be said for making your own. These chipotle honey chicken crispers have just the right amount of heat — carefully paired with the ideal level of sweet — to give them the perfect flavor. The chicken is batter-dipped, breaded and fried, and then doused in sauce. Delish!

This recipe has three distinct elements, and they all have their own set of ingredients. Each contributes to give these chicken crispers their layers of unique taste:

The sauce: Contains honey and chipotle chili powder, along with apple cider vinegar and ketchup. These ingredients are combined, brought to a boil, then set aside.

The batter: Is a pretty basic recipe that calls for egg, milk, garlic powder and flour. Once the batter is finished, set it aside (sense a theme?).

Tips for perfect chicken tenders

The magic begins once you’ve created your breading, batter and sauce. First, dip your chicken tenderloin in the batter, and then place it in the breading. Gently hand rolling the chicken through your breading ensures each delicious morsel clings to the batter-dipped chicken. Once you’ve dressed all your chicken crispers, it’s time to fry.

These would make a terrific main course for dinner, or a lively and unique dish at your neighbor’s potluck gathering. For home meals, consider a fresh veggie-filled spinach salad or a mellow bean salad as a solid accompaniment to this feisty dish.
