These came out pretty good, and I've made them twice. I used actual fresh ginger and garlic instead which I think did a lot for the flavor. And i definitely agree, the chicken has to be baked for longer than the recipe calls for, and making it the second time sticking to the ingredients, it was a bit bland without some added flavor.

We marinated the chicken for about 30 minutes and had to leave them in the oven for longer than the recipe called for and the chicken was still tasteless without the sauce. Not sure I would make it again.

These Chicken Tenders are soooo good. I also mixed in the juice of a tangerine and it made this already great recipe even better. Everyone in my family loves when I make these.
