Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Breading Station

    Set up three bowls for the breading process: one with flour mixed with salt and pepper, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.

  2. 2

    Bread the Chicken

    Dip each chicken tender first into the flour mixture, then into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs. Ensure each tender is fully coated.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Ensure the butter is hot but not burning.

  4. 4

    Fry the Tendies

    Carefully add the breaded chicken tenders to the skillet, cooking in batches if necessary. Fry for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.

  5. 5

    Drain and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the tenders and place them on paper towels to remove excess oil. Serve with pickles, your choice of heats, and a large sauce of your choice.
