These Spicy Thai Chicken Tenders are coated in panko, fried to perfection, then tossed in a delicious spicy sauce. SO delicious and take less than 20 minutes from start to finish!
Made this delicious recipe for dinner last night. All six adults enjoyed it! I tripled the amount of chicken, to accommodate the number of guests I had. It tasted wonderful! - Reader Comment

For the Sauce STEP 1Add garlic, brown sugar, soy sauce, sriracha, peanut butter, ginger, water, and cornstarch to a small sauce pot. Whisk to combine completely. Bring to a boil, whisking occasionally. Simmer and let sauce thicken. If sauce seems too thick, add a bit of water thin it.
