Method

Preparation of Chicken Tenders

  1. 1

    Cut Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into tenders, about 1-inch wide.

  2. 2

    Prepare Breading Stations

    Set up three bowls for breading: one with flour mixed with salt, pepper, and garlic powder; one with beaten eggs; and one with breadcrumbs.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Coat each chicken tender first in the flour mixture, then dip into the egg, and finally coat with breadcrumbs. Set aside on a plate.

  1. 4

    Heat Oil

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

  2. 5

    Fry Chicken

    Add the breaded chicken tenders to the hot oil and fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side.

  3. 6

    Drain and Cool

    Remove the chicken tenders from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.

Making Buffalo Sauce

  1. 7

    Melt Butter

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

  2. 8

    Combine Ingredients

    Once melted, stir in the hot sauce and apple cider vinegar until well combined.

    Toss Chicken

    In a large bowl, toss the fried chicken tenders with the buffalo sauce until fully coated.

  2. 10

    Plate with Accompaniments
