Siracha Baked Chicken Tenders

Oh the joys of Monday.  I work from home so typically it’s very easy for me to create almost anything I want for dinner because I can fit the prep into break times during the day.  However, today I had a business meeting in San Ramon.  I didn’t have the luxury of prepping today.

As I thought about what I could whip up, I remembered that I bought a bottle of Siracha sauce a long time ago and forgot I had it.  I had heard so much about siracha sauce so I wanted to give it a try.

I bought it from Cost Plus World Market.  if you like things spicy than this is a perfect recipe for your.
