Great idea..
Here's my version of the LAWL approved spicy chicken strips.. I don't have exact measurments in front of me, but you'll get the idea..

Buffalo Chicken Strips

1 doz skinless, unbreaded chicken tenders (cut if half if you desire)

2 tbs. of smart balance or other lite butter alternative.
1/4 tsp. paprika (smoked if you have it)
1/4 tsp.chile powder (salt free)
1/4 tsp. onion powder
1/4 tsp. garlic powder (not garlic salt!)

buffalo style hot sauce to taste.
morton's lite salt or other potassium based salt alternative.

Put spice powders (but not the salt) in a shaker for improved coating.

Melt smart balance and place liquid in a large bowl. place tenders in bowl and mix until all are coated. drain any excess liquid. Coat tenders with a small amount of buffalo sauce (Frank's Red Hot is tasty) and (on a cookie sheet)place into an oven, pre-heated to 350.

Use Reynolds "Release" foil to prevent them from sticking!

Cooking times will vary due to altitude and size of chicken tenders (which is a lazy way of saying I'm not sure how long to cook them!)

Once the tenders are done, place in a clean bowl and coat with sauce to taste, or serve with small dishes of sauce and FF Ranch on the side.
