Chicken Tenders

Dipping Sauces

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into strips, about 1 inch wide. Pat them dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate shallow bowls, place the flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs mixed with salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Coat each chicken strip in flour, shaking off excess. Dip into the beaten eggs, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture.

  2. 4

    Fry the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat cooking oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded chicken strips in batches. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  3. 5

    Drain and Serve

    Once cooked, transfer chicken tenders to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot.

Dipping Sauces

  1. 6

    Prepare Dipping Sauces

    Pour barbecue sauce, ranch dressing, and honey mustard into small bowls for dipping.
