Fried Chicken Tenders

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. 2
   While oven is preheating, place 1/2 cup butter or margarine in 9x13 baking dish. Place in oven just until melted.
3. 3
   Combine biscuit mix, salt, paprika, and pepper in small mixing bowl.
4. 4
   Place the amount of breading you'll be using in a paper bag. (Whole recipe will coat one whole fryer chicken or about 8 chicken breasts). Place the remainder in a plastic baggie for use at a later time.
5. 5
   Cut chicken into pieces about 1 inch thick.
6. 6
   Place chicken pieces in paper bag of breading one at a time and shake to coat.
7. 7
   Place coated pieces in baking dish with melted butter or margarine.
8. 8
   Bake at 400 degrees for 50 minutes. Reduce heat to 375 and bake for an additional 10 minutes. If using a convection oven (which is what I use) you'll only need to bake the chicken at 400 for about 40 minutes.
9. 9
   Serve with your favorite dipping sauce (I prefer honey mustard).
