Superbowl Munchies

Superbowl parties are full of nothing but guilty pleasure foods. Chicken wings, chips, guacamole, and bean dip to name a few without even beginning to mention alcohol. I am watching the Superbowl as I right this, sitting on my couch in my sweatpants enjoying a super lazy sunday (get it? Superbowl....super lazy?).

Anyways, I wanted to make some football inspired food to celebrate the game. Instead of chicken wings (my boyfriend's favorite), I used chicken tenders. Also, I made mini rollups instead of enormous sandwiches. I've also got the alcohol covered. I opened a cooled Miller Chill, a low calorie refreshing beer.

Sweet Chili-Glazed Chicken Tenders

(adapted from Bon Appetit)

Ingredients:

- 2 pound chicken tenders

- 1/4 cup peanut oil

- 3 tablespoons soy sauce

- 2 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic

- 2 tablespoons minced ginger

- 3/4 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper

- 1 cup rice vinegar

- 3/4 cup sugar

- 1/2 cup water

- 1 tablespoon chili-garlic sauce

1. Mix oil, soy sauce, 2 tablespoons garlic, ginger, and 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper. Add chicken and coat. Let sit in refrigerator for 2 hours.

2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

3. Using tongs, place chicken in baking dish or baking sheet. Bake until coked through and golden brown, about 20 minutes.

4. Meanwhile, combine vinegar, sugar, water, chili-garlic sauce, 1/2 tablespoon garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper in a medium saucepan. Bring to boil and then reduce to a simmer until the glaze turns to a syrupy consistency (about 20 minutes).

4. Pour over baked chicken and coat it all with the glaze.

(can eat alone or over rice)
