I wanted to do this recipe, mainly for the sauce – it’s so delicious, and goes with chicken, pork, beef, or fish. The picture is of chicken breast tenders. Let everyone think you’ve worked for hours to prepare this! It’s fast, and very impressive.
The recipe to make the tenders is similar to the one I use for pork medallions. It’s easy, and equally good for kids, company, or a quick supper.
