Sesame Crusted chicken tenders drizzled with a little bit of honey are crunchy like chicken tenders should be and make a great party food. No one will know that these fit the paleo, grain free diet plan. I know wings are the ultimate party food, but these are easier to eat and more kid friendly.
Serve them on sticks or skewers. There are lots of different dipping sauces you could use instead of honey, but the honey is so good on hot chicken.
Game day is right around the corner. These are a great game day choice instead of wings. You can make them ahead, leave honey off, reheat and then put the honey on right before serving.
If you want something a little different, try these cornflake BAKED chicken tenders.
So tell me what’s your favorite party food? Do you worry about eating too much, having a healthy choice or just go all out?

These look SO good! I have a few paleo friends who are going to love this recipe!
Thank Chelley. It’s a great way to go grain free.
Those look so so good. They would go great with some potato wedges or fries. Or anything really, they look that good.
Mistee, yes, even on top of a salad.
You sold me when you started talking about dipping them in honey. I can’t resist that combo.
I know honey on warm chicken, so good. Liz.
Dripping with honey just makes them look that much yummier! I bet my son would love these!
The honey is the key here, so good, Autumn. Love your name.
These look so good, and I’m trying to eat more Paleo foods, so I’m all over this.
Thanks, Tammi, I try to eat Paleo several days a week. It’s so good.
I need to bookmark your site. I need more recipes like this. Thanks

Those SESAME CHICKEN TENDERS WITH HONEY look absolutely mouthwatering! I love a good chicken dish and these ones would be perfect for my little ones too!
These look so delicious i will have to try this recipe this weekend. I am sure my family will love them.

Wow. Those look really good. I’m hungry just looking at them. Definitely a must try.

Thanks Rqcquel. Could be either.
Those look delicious and look like the perfect finger food for get together. They look like they would be fun to dip as well.
Tammilee, Yes, all kinds of dips would be great with these. I’m even thinking instead of honey a peach preserve with a little cayenne pepper.
These tenders look so inviting. My son & I would be all over them. I think we’ll make some this weekend.
Those look amazing! I’m not on the paleo thing, but if all the food is like this, I might have to be!
Paleo is mostly grain free, so this is an idea to do chicken without grains.
