Time 2h35m

Yield 24 tenders

Number Of Ingredients 45

1 quart water
1/2 cup kosher salt
1/4 cup sugar
1 bay leaf
4 whole peeled garlic cloves
3/4 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
1/2 lemon
2 quarts ice cubes
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup pickle juice
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 1/2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon paprika
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, for seasoning
4 eggs, beaten
3 cups panko breadcrumbs
1 cup cornstarch
1 1/2 tablespoons dried oregano
1 1/2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 1/2 tablespoons onion powder
1 tablespoon paprika
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, for seasoning
1/2 cup fajita seasoning
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic salt
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1 tablespoon superfine sugar
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
24 chicken tenders (about 2 2/3 pounds), tendons removed
Canola oil, for deep frying
Buttermilk Ranch Dipping Sauce
1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup buttermilk
3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4 to 5 turns fresh ground black pepper
Pinch of cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Make the brine: Combine the water, salt, sugar, bay leaf, garlic, pepper and lemon in a large stock pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat and let simmer until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • When done, remove from the heat, add the ice cubes and stir until the liquid is chilled. Add the buttermilk and pickle juice. Stir well then pour enough brine over the chicken tenders in a large bowl to submerge them. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
  • Make the seasoned flour: Combine the ingredients in a medium bowl and mix well.
  • Make the panko breading: Take half of the panko breadcrumbs and pulse in a food processor until fine. Combine with the remaining ingredients in a medium bowl. Mix well and set aside.
  • Make the seasoning: Combine the ingredients in a small bowl, mix well and set aside.
  • Prepare the chicken tenders: Remove the chicken tenders from the brine and pat dry. Set up a breading station with the seasoned flour, egg wash and panko breading. Working with 1 or 2 tenders at a time, lightly coat in the seasoned flour, dip in the egg wash, then place in the panko breading. Cover the tender in the breading then firmly press the tender flat with your palm to an even 1/4 inch thick. Flip and press again as needed to achieve even thickness and breading.
  • Preheat 3 to 4 inches of oil in a Dutch oven to 350 degrees F. Working in batches, fry the chicken tenders, turning occasionally, until golden brown all over and cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the oil to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Season the tenders evenly all over with the seasoning and serve with the dipping sauce.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together all of the ingredients until well combined and creamy in texture. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve, up to 5 days.

GRILLED BUTTERMILK CHICKEN TENDERS WITH DIPPING SAUCES



Grilled Buttermilk Chicken Tenders with Dipping Sauces image

Chicken tenders grill quickly-almost too quickly, resulting in dryness. But not with these skewers, which benefit from a buttermilk brine and a blanket of bacon. Serve them with a choice of two dipping sauces-a creamy ranch and a spicy romesco-that pair nicely with crudités, too.

Time 12h40m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/4 pounds chicken tenders (10 to 12), or cutlets sliced lengthwise into 1-inch strips
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
4 scallions, white parts only, halved lengthwise and smashed (light- and dark- green tops reserved for Buttermilk-Scallion Ranch Dipping Sauce)
6 slices bacon (about 8 ounces), preferably center-cut, halved lengthwise (optional)
Vegetable oil, for brushing
Cocktail tomatoes and mini cucumber spears, for serving
Buttermilk-Scallion Ranch and Spicy Romesco Dipping Sauces, for serving

Steps:

  • In a bowl or resealable plastic bag, season chicken with salt and pepper. Add buttermilk and scallions, massaging to evenly coat chicken. Refrigerate at least 12 hours and up to 1 day.
  • Drain chicken; discard scallions. Wrap each tender with a strip of bacon and thread onto skewers, being sure to skewer bacon at top and bottom of each strip.
  • Preheat a grill for direct-heat cooking over medium. Brush grates with oil. Add chicken, cover, and cook, turning skewers a few times, until bacon is crisp and chicken is just cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve with tomatoes, cucumbers, and dipping sauces.

Tips:

  • Fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the sauce will taste. Use high-quality buttermilk, fresh herbs, and crisp vegetables.
  • Balance the flavors: Ranch dressing should have a balance of tanginess, creaminess, and herbs. Adjust the amounts of buttermilk, mayonnaise, and herbs to suit your taste.
  • Let the flavors meld: After you make the sauce, let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Serve with your favorite foods: Ranch dressing is a versatile condiment that can be used with a variety of foods. Serve it with vegetables, chicken, fish, or even pizza.

Conclusion:

Buttermilk scallion ranch dipping sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make condiment that can be used with a variety of foods. It's perfect for dipping vegetables, chicken, fish, or even pizza. With its tangy, creamy, and herbaceous flavor, this sauce is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
