COOL RANCH CHICKEN TENDERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• As it heats, fill a food processor with Doritos. Put on the lid and pulse until you have a fine crumble. If you don't have a food processor, place them in a gallon-sized resealable plastic bag and smash until they're dust, basically. Once you have about 1 1/2 cups of crumbled Doritos, pour them into a shallow bowl.
• In a second shallow bowl, crack two eggs and beat them with a fork until thoroughly combined. In a third shallow bowl, combine flour, salt and pepper. Set all three bowls in a row, starting with flour mixture, then egg mixture, then crushed Doritos. Place them next to a baking sheet (it will all make sense soon, promise).
• Cut chicken breasts into strips. Dip each strip into the flour mixture, then the egg mixture, then the Doritos, then place them about an inch apart on a baking sheet (ideally lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup afterward).
• Bake chicken tenders for 30-35 minutes, or until the juices run clear when pierced with a fork. If you cut a chicken strip in half, the inside should be entirely white.

CHICKEN TENDERS WITH BUTTERMILK RANCH DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Make the brine: Combine the water, salt, sugar, bay leaf, garlic, pepper and lemon in a large stock pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat and let simmer until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes.
• When done, remove from the heat, add the ice cubes and stir until the liquid is chilled. Add the buttermilk and pickle juice. Stir well then pour enough brine over the chicken tenders in a large bowl to submerge them. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
• Make the seasoned flour: Combine the ingredients in a medium bowl and mix well.
• Make the panko breading: Take half of the panko breadcrumbs and pulse in a food processor until fine. Combine with the remaining ingredients in a medium bowl. Mix well and set aside.
• Make the seasoning: Combine the ingredients in a small bowl, mix well and set aside.
• Prepare the chicken tenders: Remove the chicken tenders from the brine and pat dry. Set up a breading station with the seasoned flour, egg wash and panko breading. Working with 1 or 2 tenders at a time, lightly coat in the seasoned flour, dip in the egg wash, then place in the panko breading. Cover the tender in the breading then firmly press the tender flat with your palm to an even 1/4 inch thick. Flip and press again as needed to achieve even thickness and breading.
• Preheat 3 to 4 inches of oil in a Dutch oven to 350 degrees F. Working in batches, fry the chicken tenders, turning occasionally, until golden brown all over and cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the oil to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Season the tenders evenly all over with the seasoning and serve with the dipping sauce.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together all of the ingredients until well combined and creamy in texture. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve, up to 5 days.

OVEN-FRIED RANCH CHICKEN

Combine the breadcrumbs, chives, the remaining thyme and 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper in a shallow bowl.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade and dredge in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing to adhere. Put the white meat on one wire rack and the dark meat on the other rack, skin-side up. Coat the chicken with cooking spray. Transfer to the oven, placing the dark meat on the bottom oven rack; bake until the crust is golden and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat registers 165 degrees F, 50 to 55 minutes. Let cool slightly on the wire racks, 10 minutes. Season with salt.
