Cooking the Chicken Tenders

Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the cooking oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.

Fry the Chicken Tenders
Carefully add the breaded chicken tenders to the hot oil, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Drain Excess Oil
Once cooked, remove the chicken tenders from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
