Honey Sriracha Chicken Tenders with Fresh Mango

It may "feel" like winter right now, but its SPRING!!!  And, after months of casseroles and winter meals, I'm ready to enjoy some lighter fare!  So I went hunting for a fun new chicken dish - and also, a way to use the mangos we had on hand! As usual, Pinterest provided great inspiration!  I played around with a few ideas and came up with these baked chicken tenders that were a HUGE HIT in my house!  Honey Sriracha Chicken Tenders with Fresh Mango!





Honey Sriracha Chicken Tenders:
10 chicken tenderloins (or some small-medium chicken breasts cut in half)
2 Tablespoons honey
2 Tablespoons lemon juice
1 small onion, peeled and quartered
1-2 Tablespoons Sriracha Sauce, depending on how spicy you like it.
2 teaspoons Paprika
2 teaspoons canola oil
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
2 mangos, diced

1.) Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.  Combine honey, lemon juice, sriracha, onion, paprika, oil, garlic salt, cinnamon, and pepper in a food processor or blender and blend until it becomes a paste.
2.) Spread honey sriracha sauce over chicken (both sides).
3.) Place tin foil on a rimmed baking sheet. Spray with cooking spray. Place chicken on prepared sheet. Bake for 30 minutes (or until cooked through), flipping halfway through cooking.
4.) While chicken is baking, dice mango. Serve chicken strips with mango on top.  Enjoy!
