Method

  1. Season the chicken

  3. Make the wet batter

    • Dip each seasoned tender into the wet batter, letting the excess drip off.
    • Press it firmly into the seasoned flour so the coating sticks all over.
    • Set the coated tenders on a rack while the oil heats.

  5. Fry the tenders

    • Heat the frying oil to 175 °C.
    • Fry the tenders in batches until deep golden and cooked through, turning once.
