Fried Buffalo Chicken Tenders Food

BUFFALO CHICKEN TENDERS

Steps:

• Preheat deep fryer to 360 degrees.
• Combine chicken tenders and hot sauce in plastic bag. Store in refrigerator for 30 minutes to an hour.
• Combine flour, Cajun seasoning, and salt on one plate. Put buttermilk on second plate.
• Place chicken tenders in flour and dredge to coat. Transfer to buttermilk, dredge, then return to flour and dredge once more. You should have a nice, thick crust.
• Place breaded tenders on a wire rack for 5 minutes, to set the crust. If you skip this step, the crust may fall off during frying.
• After crust has set, dredge once more in flour and drop into oil. You can skip the final dredge, but I find it makes for a crispier result.
• Fry for 4-6 minutes until golden, brown, and delicious.

• Combine biscuit mix, salt, paprika, and pepper in small mixing bowl.
• Place the amount of breading you'll be using in a paper bag. (Whole recipe will coat one whole fryer chicken or about 8 chicken breasts). Place the remainder in a plastic baggie for use at a later time.
• Cut chicken into pieces about 1 inch thick.

• Place coated pieces in baking dish with melted butter or margarine.
