Instructions
- Wash hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
- To make maple-peach glaze: In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine peach preserves and maple syrup. Heat in microwave for 30 seconds. Stir. Heat for 30 more seconds or until glaze begins to bubble around the sides and is well-blended.
- Heat a medium nonstick skillet on medium-high heat. Brown both sides of chicken tenders for 5 minutes. Wash hands after touching uncooked chicken.
- Reduce heat to medium. Cover. Cook for 7–8 minutes. Heat to an internal temperature of 165 °F or higher for at least 15 seconds. If needed, turn tenders to prevent overbrowning.
- Drizzle half of the maple-peach glaze over chicken. Decrease heat to low. Cover. Cook chicken for 3 minutes or until glaze begins to bubble. Remove from heat.
- Place waffles in toaster. Toast for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the toaster.
- Serve 1 chicken tender with ½ waffle and 1 Tbsp of maple-peach glaze. Serve immediately, or keep warm at 140 °F or higher.
