Instructions to make Chicken Fingers:
- Turn the eye on to med low. Always heat oil very slowly and make sure oil is 350°
- Pour oil into a cast iron skillet. Your skillet may require more or less but make sure the oil will almost cover the tenders.
- Beat eggs and hot sauce together. The container should be able to hold a couple tenders at a time.
- Combine all dry ingredients in a deep plate or pan with sides. Set up a holding dish with wax paper in order to double batter.
- once you have egg mix, flour mix, and holding dish you are ready to batter.
- Submerge as many tenders in the egg mix as possible. (This will get really messy so I use one hand for egg dipping and transfer into flour mix. I use my other hand to flour the tenders.)
- Remove from egg mix and place in flour mix. Coat both sides of tenders with the flour mix and then place on holding dish.
- Continue with egg and flour coating until all tenders are in holding dish.
- Now repeat steps 6 and 7 for the double batter. This makes for a better crunch!
- Once oil is hot enough place a few tenders in to fry. If oil is not hot enough the crust will be mushy. If the oil is to hot the chicken will be raw in the middle.
- The tenders will need to fry about 5 min on each side or until the crust is browned to your liking. I like to place fried tenders on a cooling rack in a warmed oven to make sure they remain crisp.
- Make sure the chicken is cooked and serve with you favorite dipping sauces!
