Preparation

Step 1

In a medium bowl whisk together the Silk, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, black and white pepper, and paprika. Add the chicken, toss to coat, cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
Preheat the oven to 425˚F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil and spray with cooking spray or brush with oil. Mix the cornflake crumbs, salt, pepper, thyme, paprika, and cayenne on a parchment-lined work surface or large plate. Pour the egg whites into a bowl. Drain the chicken pieces, then dip each piece in the egg whites. Roll the chicken pieces one by one in the cornflake mixture and pat with crumbs.
Arrange the chicken on a baking sheet and drizzle with the sesame oil. Bake the tenders for 6 minutes, flip them and bake an additional 5-6 minutes.
While the chicken is in the oven, make the dipping sauce: In a small bowl whisk together the mustard, honey, and chile flakes. Serve the chicken hot from the oven, with the dipping sauce.
