Method
Preparing the Chicken Tenders
Cut the Chicken
Cut the chicken breast fillets into strips, about 1 inch wide.
Bread the Chicken
Dredge each chicken strip first in the flour mixture, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with bread crumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
Frying the Chicken Tenders
Heat the Oil
In a large frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
Fry the Chicken
Carefully add the breaded chicken strips to the hot oil in batches, being sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
Drain the Chicken
Remove the chicken tenders from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serving the Chicken Tenders
Serve with Dipping Sauces
Arrange the chicken tenders on a serving platter and serve with honey mustard, BBQ sauce, and ranch dressing on the side.
