From pizza to churros, some of the best foods on the planet are those we eat with our hands. Sure, twirling strands of spaghetti on a fork or mastering the art of chopsticks can be fun, but there’s just something so enticing about eating a meal sans utensils.
When you’re in the mood to ditch the fork, throw it back to the days when you ordered off the kids menu and whip up a batch of these crispy baked chicken tenders with homemade honey mustard sauce. They’re finger-lickin’ good.
