Chicken Tenders

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. In another bowl, combine the flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. In a third bowl, place the breadcrumbs. Dip each chicken tenderloin first in the flour mixture, then in the egg mixture, and finally in the breadcrumbs to coat.

  2. 2

    Fry the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the coated chicken tenderloins. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Cook the French Fries

    While the chicken is frying, prepare the French fries according to package instructions or fry fresh fries in oil until golden and crispy.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Plate the chicken tenders with a side of French fries. Serve with honey mustard for dipping. Optionally, toss the tenders in buffalo sauce for 'Buffalo Style'.
