BEER-BATTERED FRIED CHICKEN FINGERS



Beer-Battered Fried Chicken Fingers image

The first time I made this chicken I had a houseful of company. The plan was to serve this chicken alongside a roast that I always make (and is usually super popular). Let's just say, this plate of chicken was finished down to the last crumb. As for the meat, I re-warmed it the next day as it was basically untouched. I like to serve this chicken with an option of sweet or savory dipping sauces. For sweet, I like to whip up some of my Maple Mayo (1/2 cup mayonnaise + 3 tablespoons maple syrup). I've also provided a recipe for a savory sauce that has a touch of sweetness, but a sharp aftertaste that will please the mature palates in your family. READ MORE

CRISPY CIDER-BATTERED CHICKEN FINGERS



Crispy Cider-Battered Chicken Fingers image

Believe it or not, the best beer batter isn't made with beer! It's actually done with sparkling apple cider, which produces a light, beautifully crispy, and very flavorful coating. Not to mention it's super easy.

Provided by Chef John

Time 35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 (8 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 pinch cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup self-rising flour
1 ¼ cups sparkling apple cider
1 quart canola oil for frying
⅓ cup Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1 pinch white sugar, or to taste

Steps:

  • Cut each chicken breast into 6 finger-sized strips, and transfer into a mixing bowl.
  • Season with kosher salt, black pepper, and cayenne and toss until evenly coated. Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over top and shake the bowl to coat the strips. Toss until all the surfaces are completely coated, and then transfer onto a rack or plate. Place in the refrigerator, uncovered, for at least 10 minutes, or until ready to fry.
  • Meanwhile, whisk self-rising flour and sparkling apple cider together in a mixing bowl to form a thin batter. Batter should be somewhere between a thin pancake batter and a crepe batter, but still thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Place in the refrigerator to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before using.
  • Mix Dijon mustard, vinegar, hot sauce, and sugar together for dipping sauce in a bowl.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Dip each chicken finger into the batter to coat. Deep-fry in batches in the hot oil until golden brown, crispy, and no longer pink in the centers, 3 to 4 1/2 minutes. Drain on paper towels and serve immediately with dipping sauce.

Tips:

  • Use fresh chicken. Fresh chicken will yield the best results, as it will be more tender and flavorful. If you are using frozen chicken, be sure to thaw it completely before cooking.
  • Make sure the chicken is dry before coating it in the batter. This will help the batter adhere to the chicken and prevent it from falling off during cooking.
  • Use a light hand when coating the chicken in the batter. You don't want the batter to be too thick, as this will make the chicken fingers greasy and heavy.
  • Fry the chicken fingers in hot oil. This will help them cook quickly and evenly. If the oil is not hot enough, the chicken fingers will absorb too much oil and become greasy.
  • Drain the chicken fingers on paper towels before serving. This will help to remove any excess oil.

Conclusion:

Beer batter chicken fingers are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties, game days, or a casual meal with family and friends. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can enjoy this classic dish in the comfort of your own home. So next time you're looking for a tasty and satisfying snack, give beer batter chicken fingers a try!
