Glo sent me a recipe for chicken tenders that was so scrumptious and yummy, I was really surprised. My husband loved it so much he made me call his mother and give her the recipe.

I have no idea what the carbohydrate breakdown is but it's okay for induction, I know that.

Thank you glo, for sending me this recipe, I'm going to post it here in case anyone else is interested.

Ingredients:

2 pounds Chicken Tenders

MARINADE:
1 cup Heavy Cream
2 Tablespoons Prepared Ranch Dressing
2 teaspoons Garlic Powder
2 teaspoons Onion Powder
2 teaspoons Ground Black Pepper

BREADING:
1 can Parmesan Cheese, the powder kind
2-3 teaspoons each: Garlic Powder & Ground Black Pepper

Peanut oil for pan frying



How to Prepare:
Mix marinade ingredients and marinate at least 6 hours or overnight.

Combine the Parmesan breading and coat each chicken tender really well.

Add enough oil to pan fry the breaded chicken tenders. Med-High heat.

Cook the batches of tenders till they are a nice crunchy golden brown.

As an aside, my mother, who is so very ill, loved this too. She said that she preferred this to chicken fried in a white flour batter.

I thought the cheese would fall off the chicken during frying, but it didn't. The chicken tenders are nice and crispy

Thanks again, Glo.

This sounds great! I'm going to try it this weekend.

I've been making the fast version of this. Just dip the chicen pieces in beaten egg, and "bread" with parmesan cheese with garlic powder added. I pan fried in olive oil. It was good for a fast meal, but your recipe is probably a lot tastier.

P.S. This recipe site is a great idea. I'm waiting for a recipe for low carb stuffing for Thanksgiving...maybe with Atkins bread?
