These sweet and tender chicken strips
make a great after school snack.
You can also make these appetizers ahead for a good night of card playing. They can be stored in the refrigerator up to 3 days in a tightly sealed container.
Ingredients:
2 pounds chicken breast tenders, or 4 boneless breast halves cut into six strips each (24 strips total)
1/2 cup Maple Pancake Syrup
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon dried tarragon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Directions:
Place strips in a shallow baking dish or resealable plastic bag. In a
small bowl, whisk syrup, mustard, tarragon, salt and pepper until
smooth. Pour into plastic bag on top of strips and marinate for 4 hours
up to overnight in the refrigerator.
When ready to serve, preheat oven to 450ºF. Thread strips on
metal or water-soaked bamboo skewers. Simmer excess marinade in small
sauce pan for 4 minutes. Keep hot. Arrange strips on a baking sheet
lined with foil and bake for 15 minutes, basting with hot marinade a few
times until cooked though and lightly golden. Arrange on serving plate
and drizzle remaining hot marinade over the strips.
