Breading and Cooking

Method

Breading and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Breading

    In a shallow dish, mix together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, paprika, and cayenne pepper.

  2. 2

    Coat the Chicken

    Remove the chicken tenders from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge each tender in the flour mixture, pressing lightly to adhere. Shake off any excess.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  4. 4

    Fry the Chicken Tenders

    Carefully add the breaded chicken tenders to the hot oil in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  5. 5

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the cooked tenders from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
