Steps:
- Place the chicken tenders in the buttermilk and marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours
- Preheat oven to 250F
- Place a large, high-sided skillet over medium heat with the oil (it should come about an inch up the side of the pan)
- While the oil heats up, combine 2 cups flour and spices in a large dish
- Working in batches, coat the chicken tenders in the spiced flour mixture, pressing on them lightly to make the flour stick (for a really good breading, double dip the tenders by running them through the buttermilk and flour a second time)
- Once the oil has heated up, fry the chicken in batches until deep golden brown and cooked through, 5-6 minutes
- (As you finish each batch, transfer them to a sheet pan and keep them warm in the low oven)
- When the chicken tenders are almost ready, place a medium saucepot over medium heat and melt the butter
- Sprinkle remaining 3 tablespoons flour over the butter and cook for about a minute
- Whisk the chicken stock, Worcestershire and molasses into the butter-flour mixture and simmer until thickened, 2-3 minutes
- Season with salt and pepper, and reserve warm
- Serve the chicken tenders with the molasses dipping gravy and some Sweet Potato Oven Fries alongside

Steps:
- Sprinkle the chicken pieces with salt and pepper, and place them in a deep-sided baking dish.
- Whisk together the buttermilk, hot pepper sauce, and 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper in a bowl. Pour the mixture over the chicken, stir to coat all sides of the chicken pieces, and cover the dish with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for about 2 hours to marinate.
- Remove the chicken pieces from the buttermilk mixture, and shake off excess. Discard the remaining buttermilk mixture.
- Place the flour, 1 tablespoon of cayenne pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and salt and pepper to taste in a large plastic zipper bag, and shake well to combine. Place 2 or 3 pieces of chicken at a time into the plastic bag, and shake well to coat the chicken pieces with seasoned flour.
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Gently place chicken pieces into the hot oil, and fry until chicken is cooked through and golden brown, 8-10 minutes (breasts and wings) or 13 to 15 minutes (thighs and drumsticks). Drain the fried chicken on paper towels.

GRILLED BUTTERMILK CHICKEN TENDERS WITH DIPPING SAUCES
Chicken tenders grill quickly-almost too quickly, resulting in dryness. But not with these skewers, which benefit from a buttermilk brine and a blanket of bacon. Serve them with a choice of two dipping sauces-a creamy ranch and a spicy romesco-that pair nicely with crudités, too.

Steps:
- In a bowl or resealable plastic bag, season chicken with salt and pepper. Add buttermilk and scallions, massaging to evenly coat chicken. Refrigerate at least 12 hours and up to 1 day.
- Drain chicken; discard scallions. Wrap each tender with a strip of bacon and thread onto skewers, being sure to skewer bacon at top and bottom of each strip.
- Preheat a grill for direct-heat cooking over medium. Brush grates with oil. Add chicken, cover, and cook, turning skewers a few times, until bacon is crisp and chicken is just cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve with tomatoes, cucumbers, and dipping sauces.
