Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400F and put the oven rack in the center position.
• Lay the raw chicken on a baking sheet.
• Brush one side of the chicken tenders with olive oil or the melted butter.
• Sprinkle chicken rub on the side that was just brushed with oil or melted butter.
• Flip the chicken tenders over and continue brushing with the oil or butter and sprinkle the 2nd side with chicken rub.
• Bake the chicken for a total of 10 minutes, flipping after 5 minutes, if desired but not required, and then continue cooking on the other side until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 160F.
• Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes until serving.

TANGY OVEN-BAKED CHICKEN TENDERS WITHOUT BREADING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray lightly with nonstick spray.
• Combine chili sauce, honey, lime juice, dried onion, brown sugar, garlic, and Sriracha in a small bowl. Let the sauce sit for 5 minutes to allow the dried onion to soften a bit.
• Spread out chicken tenders on the prepared baking sheet; brush with a thin coat of the sauce.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, remove from oven, and brush on the remaining sauce. Return to the oven and bake until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Serve with lime wedges.
