Time 2h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1/3 cup hot sauce
Kosher salt
8 chicken tenders (about 1 pound)
1 ear of corn
1 tablespoon honey
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup coarse yellow cornmeal
1 teaspoon baking powder
Vegetable oil, for frying
Hot sauce, ketchup, honey mustard or yellow mustard, for serving

Steps:

  • Whisk together 1/2 cup of the buttermilk, the hot sauce and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a large mixing bowl. Add the chicken tenders and toss to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to overnight.
  • For the corn dog batter, cut the corn away from the cob and transfer to a blender. Use the back of a knife to scrape the milk off the cob and add to the blender. Add the remaining buttermilk, the honey and 1 teaspoon salt and blend until completely smooth. With the blender off, add 1 1/4 cups of the flour, the cornmeal and baking powder. Use a wooden spoon or rubber spatula to lightly stir the dry ingredients into the corn mixture until just combined. Blend until the mixture is mostly smooth (a few lumps is fine).
  • Fill a large Dutch oven or pot halfway with oil and heat to 350 degrees F over medium heat.
  • While the oil heats up, remove the chicken tenders from the buttermilk mixture onto a baking sheet lined with several layers of paper towels. Pat the chicken dry with additional paper towels. Use a pair of kitchen shears to cut off the pointed end of each skewer. Carefully insert 1 skewer about three-quarters of the way through each chicken tender. Set aside.
  • Pour the remaining 1/2 cup flour onto a plate. Lightly season with salt. Working with one chicken tender at a time, dredge in the seasoned flour and then carefully dip into the batter (which is still in the blender), submerging completely. Tip the blender as needed to make it easier to cover the chicken with batter. Carefully place the battered chicken in the oil and fry until the chicken is cooked through and the outside is golden brown, about 5 minutes, turning occasionally. Do not fry more than 3 chicken tenders at a time or they will to stick to each other. Transfer the fried "corn dogs" to a paper-towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil. Season liberally with salt. Dredge, batter and fry the remaining chicken. Allow the corn dogs to sit for at least 5 minutes before eating.
  • Serve with hot sauce, ketchup, honey mustard or yellow mustard.

CHICKEN CORN DOGS

Categories     appetizer

Time 40m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (about 8 ounces each), halved crosswise, then cut lengthwise into 3/4-inch-wide strips
3/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Kosher salt
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, plus more for frying
1 1/2 cups yellow cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for coating
2 teaspoons mustard powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/4 cups whole milk
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon honey
Yellow mustard, for serving

Steps:

  • Toss the chicken strips with 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, the garlic powder and a big pinch of salt. Thread each strip onto an 8-inch skewer, making sure it is secure.
  • Fill a medium Dutch oven or other heavy pot with 2 inches of vegetable oil. Heat over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 365 degrees F.
  • Meanwhile, combine the cornmeal, flour, mustard powder, baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika in a large bowl. Whisk the milk, eggs, honey and vegetable oil in a small bowl. Whisk the milk mixture into the flour mixture until smooth. Pour some into a tall glass for dipping.
  • Spoon some flour onto a plate. Working in batches, hold the chicken by the skewers and lightly coat in the flour, tapping off any excess. Dip the skewers into the batter to coat, letting the excess drip off. (If the batter becomes too thick, stir in a bit of water.) Add the coated chicken to the hot oil, skewers and all, and fry, turning with tongs, until browned and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the chicken to paper towels to drain; let the oil return to 365 degrees F before frying the next batch.
  • Lightly sprinkle the chicken with salt while hot. Serve with mustard.

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups fine yellow cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dredging
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon mustard powder
Kosher salt
1 cup milk
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons peanut oil, plus more for frying
8 hot dogs

Steps:

  • Whisk the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, mustard powder and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a large bowl. Whisk the milk, eggs and peanut oil in another bowl, then add to the cornmeal mixture and whisk until smooth. Pour the batter into a tall drinking glass, reserving any extra batter.
  • Heat 3 to 4 inches peanut oil in a large, wide saucepan over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 365 degrees F. Spread some flour in a shallow dish. Thread each hot dog three-quarters of the way onto an 8-inch wooden skewer. Dredge the hot dogs in flour, tapping off the excess.
  • Working in batches, dip the hot dogs into the glass of batter; let the excess drip back into the glass, then lower the hot dogs into the hot oil. Fry, turning, until golden, 4 to 5 minutes per batch. (Refill the glass with batter as needed.) Remove the corn dogs with tongs and drain on a paper towel-lined plate; season with salt.

Fill a large Dutch oven or pot halfway with oil and heat to 350 degrees F over medium heat. While the oil heats up, remove the chicken tenders from the buttermilk mixture onto a baking sheet lined with several layers of paper towels. Pat the chicken dry with additional paper towels. Use a pair of kitchen shears to cut off the pointed end of each skewer. Carefully insert 1 skewer about three-quarters of the way through each chicken tender. Set aside. Pour the remaining 1/2 cup flour onto a plate. Lightly season with salt. Working with one chicken tender at a time, dredge in the seasoned flour and then carefully dip into the batter (which is still in the blender), submerging completely.

Dredge, batter and fry the remaining chicken. Allow the corn dogs to sit for at least 5 minutes before eating. Serve with hot sauce, ketchup, honey mustard or yellow mustard.

Tips:

  • For perfectly crispy corn dogs, use a combination of all-purpose flour, cornmeal, and baking powder in the batter.
  • For extra flavor, add herbs and spices like garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika to the batter.
  • To achieve a golden brown color, fry the corn dogs in hot oil (350°F) until they are cooked through.
  • To prevent the batter from sticking to the chicken strips, dip them in the batter twice, allowing excess batter to drip off.
  • For a fun and colorful variation, use different colored cornmeal, such as blue or red cornmeal.
  • Serve the corn dogs hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, mustard, or mayonnaise.

Conclusion:

Fried chicken corn dogs are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or meal that is perfect for parties, potlucks, or a quick lunch or dinner.
