Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Chicken tenders
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tbsp Milk
- 1.5 cups Breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 2 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 0.5 cup Ranch dressing
- 0.5 cup Honey mustard
- 0.5 cup Barbecue sauce
Instructions
Prepare a breading station with three shallow bowls. In the first bowl, add the flour. In the second bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. In the third bowl, mix breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Pat the chicken tenders dry with paper towels. Dredge each tender in the flour, ensuring an even coating. Shake off excess flour.
Dip the floured tenders into the egg mixture, coating them completely.
Press the tenders into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring an even, crispy coating on all sides. Set aside on a plate.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Carefully place the breaded chicken tenders into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Fry each side for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).
Remove cooked chicken tenders and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve the crispy chicken tenders warm with ramekins of ranch dressing, honey mustard, and barbecue sauce as dipping options. Enjoy!
