First off, you’ll need to get everything prepped and ready for this easy holiday recipe. Make sure you have a bowl of beaten eggs, one bowl of floor with a pinch of salt, and one final bowl with the panko bread crumbs and matcha powder mixture. Now, we know what you’re thinking — where are you going to find matcha powder with practically a week until Halloween? Don’t worry, we have you covered.

All you’ll need to do is soak each chicken tender in the floor, then egg wash, and finally cover them in the panko bread crumb and matcha mixture. Once you lay the tenders down on the parchment lined baking sheet, you can take a sliced almond, dab it with some egg wash, and stick it on the thin end of the chicken tender — transforming it into a ghoulish green (chicken) finger!

Finally, bake the tenders in the oven until they are each lightly golden or baked through. Add the cooked chicken tenders to your choice of hotdog bun, and put some ketchup on top for a bloody delicious finish. We can’t think of anything tastier, or more spooky looking, to enjoy this Halloween.
