Ingredients
2 tablespoons hot sauce 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar1 teaspoon dark brown sugar1/4 teaspoon salt1 pound chicken tenders1/2 cup whole-wheat bread crumbs or Panko bread crumbs1 teaspoon vegetable oil1 ounce crumbled blue cheese (about 1/4 cup)1/4 cup plain nonfat yogurt2 tablespoons nonfat or low-fat buttermilk1/4 teaspoon black pepper.1 head romaine lettuce, chopped6 celery stalks, thinly sliced
Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Whisk together the hot sauce, vinegar, sugar and salt in a shallow dish until well blended. Add the chicken and turn to coat. Marinate for 10 minutes at room temperature.

2. Put the bread crumbs and oil in a shallow dish and toss to combine. Dredge each chicken tender in the bread crumbs, completely coating both sides. Transfer to the rack of a broiler pan or to a metal rack fitted over a rimmed baking sheet. Bake, turning once, until chicken is cooked through and crust is golden brown, about 12 minutes.

3. While the chicken is baking, stir together the cheese, yogurt, buttermilk and pepper. Toss with the lettuce and celery until well coated. Divide the dressed greens and chicken tenders among 4 serving plates and serve immediately.

    I made it last night and it is really tasty. Although, a little bit spicy. My daughter said it almost taste like Hooters. Hope you enjoy it.
