Best Buffalo chicken recipe I have found. I do low carb, my fiancé doesn't. Sometimes finding something that satisfies both of us is hard. These however were perfect for a Buffalo chicken salad!
Michelle Rutan says
Has anyone put these in the air fryer instead of the oven? Was wondering what temperature and for how long?
jenniferbanz says
I would do 400F for 10 minutes
Lisa says
So easy and so delicious!! We will be making this again soon! They would taste great in a buffalo chicken wrap too!

Tasty Super Bowl substitute. Would recommend increasing volume of rub spices—ran out after 5 tenders. Instead of tossing in buffalo sauce, I dipped while eating. Paired great with Frank’s brand.

Can you use sliced chicken breast instead of tenderloins? Breasts are less expensive I think, just trying to save money...
kathy says
of course you can use chicken breasts
sarajane says
does the sauce go in the bowl or on after the chicken is baked? The pictures show after baking but the printed recipe is unclear.

On the chicken after it is cooked. Thank you for letting me know! I will fix the recipe

My husband loves these tenders. I wonder if they freeze well. I’m thinking about baking a large batch and freezing them for easy work at home lunches. Any thoughts?
