Method

Preparing Chicken Tenders

  1. 1

    Cut Chicken Breast

    Slice the chicken breast into strips, about 1 inch wide.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate bowls, place the flour in the first, whisk the eggs in the second, and combine breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder in the third.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dip each chicken strip first into the flour, shaking off excess, then into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with the breadcrumb mixture.

Cooking Chicken Tenders

  1. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat until hot.

  2. 5

    Fry Chicken Tenders

    Carefully place the breaded chicken strips into the hot oil and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

  3. 6

    Drain Excess Oil

    Remove chicken tenders from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Making Buffalo Sauce (Optional)

  1. 7

    Melt Butter

    In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.

  2. 8

    Combine Ingredients

    Once melted, whisk in the hot sauce, garlic powder, and salt until well combined.

  3. 9

    Coat Chicken Tenders

    Toss the fried chicken tenders in the buffalo sauce until evenly coated.
