Time 25m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup salted roasted almonds
1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
Kosher salt
1 pound chicken tenders
One 12-ounce jar roasted red peppers (1 1/2 cups), roughly chopped
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons tomato paste

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. Set a wire rack on a baking sheet.
  • Pulse together the almonds, parsley, garlic powder, sesame seeds, thyme and 1 tablespoon salt in a food processor until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs and no large pieces of almond are left. Transfer 3/4 cup to a shallow bowl for breading; reserve the remaining almond mixture in the food processor.
  • Press the chicken into the almond mixture until evenly coated on all sides. Put on the prepared baking sheet and broil, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crunchy and deep golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, pulse the red peppers, olive oil and tomato paste with the remaining almond mixture in the food processor until a smooth and vibrant orange. Serve alongside the chicken tenders.

Provided by Kaleb

Categories     Dinner

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 lb chicken breast (each breast sliced into 4-5 tenders)
1 ½ cups crushed Chex cereal
⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese
⅓ cup all-purpose flour
2 tbsp cornstarch
1 ½ tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
½ tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 ½ tsp salt
1 large egg (whisked)
¾ cup buttermilk
1 large egg
1 clove garlic (peeled)
2 tbsp Dijon mustard
½ tsp salt
½ tsp smoked paprika
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
¼ cup honey
½ cup neutral oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Prepare a baking sheet fitted with a wire rack to elevate the chicken and set aside.
  • Prepare the chicken by cutting each breast into desired pieces, 4-5 slices per breast. Set them aside.
  • In three low bowls or pie plates, prepare the coatings. In one bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, and salt. In the second bowl, whisk the eggs and buttermilk until smooth. In the last bowl, combine the crushed cereal and the Parmesan cheese.
  • Dredge the chicken slices first in the flour, tapping off any excess. Next, dip the chicken in the egg mixture and allow the excess to drip off. Finally, roll in the cereal mixture, making sure the chicken is evenly coated on all sides. Lay the chicken on the prepared baking rack and continue until all of the chicken is coated.
  • Once all the chicken is prepared, bake in the preheated oven until the chicken registers 160°F, 15-20 minutes.
  • In a blender container, combine the egg, garlic clove, mustard, salt, smoked paprika, and apple cider vinegar. Using the blender or an immersion blender, combine the ingredients until smooth. Add the honey and blend. With the blender running, drizzle in the oil until the mixture becomes the consistency of a thick sauce. This will not be as thick as mayonnaise. Serve with the chicken tenders.

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
¾ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 large eggs
4 tablespoons water
1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast tenders
2 cups vegetable oil for frying, or as needed

Steps:

  • Combine flour, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Mix eggs and water together in a small bowl.
  • Place some chicken strips in the flour mixture to coat, then gently shake to remove any excess flour. Coat strips in egg. Return to the flour mixture and coat again; repeat with egg mixture. Coat once more in the flour mixture, placing strips on a plate while you continue with remaining chicken.
  • Let strips sit for 5 minutes to allow flour to set.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C); oil is ready if you drop some water in and it sizzles.
  • Working in batches if needed, place strips in the hot oil. Cook for 8 minutes. Turn over and continue to cook until golden brown, no longer pink in the centers, and juices run clear, about 8 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Place strips on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 pounds raw chicken breast tenders
1/4 to 1/2 cup buttermilk
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 to 3 teaspoons seasoned salt, such as Lawry's Seasoned Salt, or spices of your choosing
Vegetable oil
Dipping sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • Submerge the chicken strips in the buttermilk for 15 to 20 minutes (or longer if you'd like).
  • In another bowl, combine the flour and seasoning salt (or other seasonings if you prefer). Mix this together well. Next, gradually drizzle 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the buttermilk into the flour mixture and stir lightly with a fork as you add it to achieve clumps.
  • Heat about 1 inch vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-low to medium heat.
  • Remove a few of the buttermilk-soaked chicken strips and place them in the flour mixture, turning them over to coat thoroughly. Place them on a plate. Continue coating the chicken strips until they are all ready to cook.
  • When the oil is sufficiently heated, begin cooking the strips a few at a time. Cook them for about a minute and a half or so on each side. When golden and crispy and the chicken is done, remove them to a paper-towel-lined plate. Do not allow them to burn.
  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce. Yum!
