Time 2h13m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons seasoned salt, divided
16 chicken breast tenders
2 cups panko bread crumbs
freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 cups vegetable oil for frying, or as needed

Steps:

  • Mix buttermilk and 1 tablespoon seasoned salt together in a bowl. Stir in chicken tenders. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 and up to 6 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 170 degrees F (75 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with paper towels; place a cooling rack on sheet and set in oven.
  • Mix remaining 1 tablespoon seasoned salt, panko bread crumbs, and pepper together in a large, flat bowl.
  • Remove tenders from marinade one at a time and shake to remove excess buttermilk. Roll pieces in panko mixture and place on a large platter.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 370 degrees F (190 degrees C). Fry chicken pieces 3 or 4 at a time in hot oil until browned and crispy, about 3 minutes. Transfer to cooling rack in oven to keep them warm as you fry.

This recipe was not worth the effort. The chicken tenders were not that great, and they took a long time to make. I will not be making this recipe again.

The chicken tenders had too much breading on them. I think I will try using less breadcrumbs next time, or maybe even using a different coating altogether.

The chicken tenders were not crispy enough for my taste. I think I will try double-coating them in flour next time, or maybe even triple-coating them.

This recipe was bland. The chicken tenders were not very flavorful. I think I will try adding some more spices to the buttermilk marinade next time.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The chicken tenders were dry and overcooked. I followed the recipe exactly, but I think I may have cooked them for too long. I will try again, but I will be more careful with the cooking time.

I was skeptical about this recipe at first, but I was pleasantly surprised. The chicken tenders were delicious! The buttermilk marinade made them extra juicy and tender, and the deep frying gave them a crispy, golden-brown coating. I will definitely

I'm trying to eat healthier, so I made a few changes to this recipe. I used whole-wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour, and I baked the chicken tenders instead of deep frying them. They turned out great! They were still crispy on the outside and

I love spicy food, so I added a teaspoon of cayenne pepper to the buttermilk marinade. The chicken tenders had a nice kick to them, and they were absolutely delicious. I served them with a side of spicy ranch dressing.
