Chicken Tenders

Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce

Method

Chicken Tenders

  1. 1

    Prepare Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into tenders, approximately 1 inch wide.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

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

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Coat each chicken tender in flour, shaking off excess. Dip in beaten eggs, then coat in seasoned breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

  4. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a large skillet, heat cooking oil over medium-high heat until hot (about 350°F or 175°C).

  5. 5

    Fry Chicken Tenders

    Carefully add chicken tenders to the hot oil in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce

  1. 6

    Mix Sauce

    In a small bowl, whisk together honey and Dijon mustard until smooth and well combined.
