This week I learned how to make REAL chicken tenders! It's so simple! I couldn't believe I had not learned how to make these! I am always trying to find new ways to cook healthier versions of my favorite foods but I really wouldn't call this "healthy eating". It's just a better version that doesn't contain so much grease or sodium like the restaurants chicken tenders. You only need 4 ingredients plus water. That's it!
Chicken Breast (cut into long thin strips)
1 or 2 cups of Flour ( I actually used whole wheat flour and they were still delicious!)
1 1/2 tablespoon of seasoned salt (You can try any type of seasoning. I'm going to try lemon pepper next time!)
1 cup of vegetable oil
2 cups of water
Heat frying pan with vegetable oil for about 4-5 minutes under low-medium heat. Mix the flour and seasoned salt in one bowl and place water in another bowl. Once you have all your chicken cut into strips, dip the chicken into the water bowl, then dip into the flour bowl but repeat the process two times. So, dip the chicken again into the water bowl (briefly, dont soak it in) and back into the flour bowl. (You can do it three times if you want them a little more crispy!) So now you are ready to fry! Place chicken in the oil. Let them simmer and fry for about 4-5 minutes or until well cooked.
Here are a few photos I took of my process
Run into you later, Leslie. (:
