Chicken Tenders

Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Servings 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 lb Chicken breast boneless skinless cut into strips
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 ½ cups Cornstarch divided
  • 1 cup Water
  • 1 tbsp Onion powder
  • 1 tbsp Garlic powder
  • 2 tbsp Yellow mustard
  • 1 cup All-purpose flour
  • 4 oz Potato chips
  • Honey mustard optional
  • BBQ sauce optional
  • Ketchup optional

Instructions

  • In a shallow bowl or container, place the corn starch. Cover the chicken strips with corn starch, shake off the excess and place on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
  • Heat the oil to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the water, one egg, mustard, garlic and onion powder, ground pepper and all-purpose flour. You should have a thick but runny batter. Place one chicken strip at a time in the batter and place it into the oil. (work in batches)
  • Fry the first batch for 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and allow the chicken to drain on paper towel for 3-4 minutes. Deep fry the same batch again for 5 minutes more or to an internal temperature of 160 degrees using a thermometer. (This ensures that the chicken cooks all the way through without getting too dark).
  • Serve with with any dipping sauce desired.
