Cheesy Hot Honey Tenders Ingredients: 700g chicken tenders 200g whole milk mozzarella block (cut into thick, uniform cheese sticks for stuffing) 1 tsp salt 1 tsp garlic powder 1 tsp onion powder 1 tsp smoked paprika 1/2 tsp black pepper 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper Breading Station: 2 large eggs, beaten 3 cups cornflakes, crushed into fine crumbs Hot Honey Sauce: 1/3 cup honey 2-3 tbsp hot sauce 1/2 tsp smoked paprika 1 tsp apple cider vinegar 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper 1/4 tsp garlic powder Pinch of salt Creamy Dipping Sauce: 1/4 cup mayonnaise 1 tbsp dijon mustard 1 tsp honey 2 tbsp ketchup 1/2 tsp garlic powder 1/2 tsp paprika 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper Squeeze of fresh lemon juice Method: Season the Chicken: Pat the chicken tenders dry with paper towels. Season with the seasonings evenly over every chicken tender. Stuff with Cheese: Take a sharp knife and poke a small lengthwise hole or tunnel right down the middle of each chicken tender (don't cut all the way through to the other side). Take a piece of a mozzarella cheese stick and push it gently into that hole. Pinch the raw chicken meat around the opening so the cheese is completely hidden inside. Coat the Tenders: Set up two bowls: beaten eggs and crushed cornflakes. Dip a stuffed tender into the eggs, and press it firmly into the cornflakes until it has a thick, crunchy coat. Repeat for all tenders. Heat cooking oil in a pan over medium heat (180°C). Fry the tenders for 4 to 5 minutes per side until the cornflake crust is golden and crunchy. For Air Fry: Place the tenders in your air fryer basket, spray them lightly with cooking oil, and cook at 200°C for 12 to 14 minutes, flipping halfway through. Make the Sauces: Whisk the hot honey sauce ingredients together in a small pan over low heat for 1 minute until warm. Brush or toss the freshly cooked, hot chicken tenders in the warm hot honey sauce. Serve immediately with your dipping sauce on the side. #Recipe #tenders #food - @byyamna
