Sweet and Sour Watermelon Chicken

This refreshing main dish is a perfect way to cool down during hot weather! Crispy chicken tenders are cooked with a sweet and sour watermelon sauce.

Steps

2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat and cook the chicken tenders for about 5 minutes, flipping them over after 2 minutes.
3. In the meantime, prepare the sauce: in a small bowl, mix together the watermelon juice, rice vinegar, maple syrup, sesame oil, and cornstarch.
4. When the chicken tenders are fully cooked, pour the sauce onto the pan and stir everything together. Allow the sauce to simmer for about 5 minutes until it’s thick, stirring occasionally.
5. Serve the sweet and sour watermelon chicken with your favorite side dish.
