Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken tenders with salt and pepper. Dredge each chicken tender in flour, dip in beaten eggs, then coat with panko breadcrumbs.

  2. 2

    Fry the Chicken

    Carefully place the breaded chicken tenders in the hot oil. Fry for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from oil and let drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Coat with Buffalo Sauce

    Once the chicken tenders are cooked, toss them in a bowl with the buffalo sauce until well coated.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, crumbled bacon, diced tomatoes, and sliced red onion. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to combine.

  5. 5

    Top with Chicken

    Place the buffalo chicken tenders on top of the salad and sprinkle with shredded cheese. Serve immediately.
