Dipping Sauces
Method
Preparation
Prepare the Chicken
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well to combine these dry ingredients.
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Cooking
Fry the Chicken Tenders
Dip each chicken tender into the batter, allowing any excess to drip off. Carefully place them in the hot oil, cooking in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through, flipping halfway.
Drain the Chicken
Using a slotted spoon, remove the chicken tenders from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Serving
Prepare Dipping Sauces
In small bowls, serve the ranch dressing, BBQ sauce mixed with honey, and a sprinkle of lemon pepper seasoning for additional flavor.
Plate and Serve
Arrange the fried chicken tenders on a serving platter and serve immediately with the dipping sauces on the side.
