Honey Graham Cracker Chicken

Ingredients

Honey Graham Crackers (or regular will do fine)
Honey
Chicken Breast or Tenderloins

Directions

Preheat over to 425.
Get a quart bag and crush graham crackers until it is mostly powder (some chunks are OK)
Drizzle honey on your washed chicken breasts or tenderloins
Put the chicken in the graham crackers and shake until they are covered.
Place on a lightly greased cookie sheet.  (I will use a casserole dish on my next attempt)
Sprinkle more of the cracker dust on top and drizzle some more honey if you want.
Bake at 425 for 20-25 minutes.
Serve with honey barbeque sauce or plain! They are sweet, juicy, and tender.
