I love, love, love this recipe. It it so versatile. I mix up the spices for whatever I'm in the mood for--Mexican, Asian, traditional . The double-dipping makes the chicken so crispy--just like it had skin. I only use chicken tenders because my family only likes white meat. Great hot or cold. This is a standard go to meal for our family.

I just watched the episode where Rachel made these tenders. One part they don't mention on the recipe is that when Rachel mixed the spice's together and BEFORE she mixed it into the flour she took half of the mixed spices and put it right on the raw chicken and the other half of the spice mixture she put into the flour. This might help the people who thought the chicken was bland. So just to reiterate, put half of the spice mixture onto the raw chicken and the other half into the flour. Hope this helps.
