Chicken Tenders

Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate Chicken

    In a bowl, combine chicken breasts and buttermilk. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.

  2. 2

    Prepare Breading

    In a shallow dish, mix together flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Coat Chicken

    Remove chicken from buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge in the flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

  4. 4

    Fry Chicken

    In a large pot, heat oil over medium-high heat. Fry chicken tenders in batches until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
