Make

  1. Heat oven to 425F / 218C. Place one oven rack in the upper third and one in the lower third of the oven.

  2. Set out two sheet pans.

  3. On the first sheet pan toss broccoli with olive oil and some salt and pepper. Transfer broccoli to the oven and roast for 10 minutes to get it started cooking.

  4. Spread oven fries out on the second sheet pan and bake until golden, shaking the pan halfway through cooking. (Note: Check the package directions for recommended cook time.)

  5. When broccoli has been baking for 10 minutes, move it all to one side of the sheet pan. Drizzle the open side of the sheet pan with the first portion of cooking oil.

  6. Working with one chicken tender at a time, firmly press it into the breading to coat on all sides. Add chicken tenders to the open side of the sheet pan. Drizzle the chicken tenders with the second portion of cooking oil (or spray them with olive oil spray; this will help the breading to turn more golden brown and crisp).

  7. Return the pan with the broccoli and chicken tenders to the oven and continue baking until chicken is cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes.

  8. Serve chicken with broccoli and fries on the side. Serve with the remaining creamy honey mustard for dipping everything!
