Tempura Battered Chicken Tenders

Method

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breasts into strips and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Tempura Batter

    In a bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add ice water until the batter is smooth and slightly thick.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  4. 4

    Batter the Chicken

    Dip each chicken strip into the tempura batter, allowing excess to drip off.

  5. 5

    Fry the Chicken

    Carefully place the battered chicken strips into the hot oil. Fry in batches for 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Use a slotted spoon to remove the chicken tenders from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your choice of Buffalo, honey mustard, or BBQ sauce.
