Ingredients
- 4 Chicken breast tenders, around 12 oz.
- 1 Egg
- 1/4 c Milk
- 1/2 c Flour
- 2 tbsp. Bread crumbs
- 1/8 tsp. Onion powder
- 1/8 tsp. Garlic powder
- 1 tsp. Salt
- 1/4 tsp. Fresh ground black pepper
- 1/2 c Buffalo sauce (Frank's is our favorite)
- 2 tbsp. Butter
- Canola or vegetable oil (for frying)
- 2 Celery stalks
Instructions
- Pat the chicken tenders dry. Tidy them up with a knife trimming off all the loose ends and slice into 3 even chunks, about 1.5" each. Season with a couple pinches of salt and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg and milk. In a separate medium bowl, mix together the flour, bread crumbs, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper.
- You will be double-battering the chicken tenders, and be sure to use one hand for the wet and the other hand for the dry. One at a time, dip each piece into the egg mixture then the flour mixture, then back to the egg and again in the flour. Set aside and let rest.
- In the meantime, add the buffalo sauce and butter to a small sauce pan. Over low heat, melt the butter and stir into the sauce. Set aside.
- In a medium sauce pan, heat about 1" of canola oil to 380°F. When at temperature, add 3-4 pieces at a time and fry until browning and cooked through, 3-4 minutes per batch. Flip a couple times, and you can tip the pot to the side (carefully) to create a bigger pool of oil. I do this to save oil, but you can fill the pan higher with oil, 2" should be enough.
- When done, remove with a slotted spoon and set aside. When all the chicken pieces are done, place in a medium mixing bowl and pour the sauce over. Toss to coat.
- Serve with a side of bleu cheese dressing (stir in some fresh gorgonzola crumbles if you have it) and slices of celery.
