Spicy Chicken Tenders image

These tenders are juicy and moist with a touch of spice. If you are familiar with Bojangles, these are very similar in taste to their spicy chicken. You can try the hot sauce and butter recipe or you can use honey mustard, ranch or whatever you like to dip your tenders in.

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb chicken tenderloins, rinsed in water
1/2 c texas pete hot sauce
1/2 c buttermilk
1 c all purpose flour
salt and pepper to taste
enough oil to be 1 1/2 inches deep in a cast iron skillet
1 stick butter
1/2 c texas pete hot sauce

Steps:

  • 1. Rinse tenderloins and place in 1 gallon ziplock bag. Add 1 cup of Texas Pete hot sauce and let marinate for 3o minutes.
  • 2. Add oil to cast iron skillet and turn heat to medium, allow 4-5 minutes for skillet to heat up. Put flour in a bowl.
  • 3. Remove tenderloins from bag and dip in buttermilk before rolling tender in flour. Shake the tender to remove excess flour.
  • 4. Once oil in skillet has heated up to the point that a little flour disperses quickly, add floured tenders to the skillet leaving a one gap in between the tenderloins. Fry until golden brown on each side about 3-4 minutes per side depending on the size of the tender.
  • 5. Remove from oil and place on a rack placed over a cookie sheet and covered with paper towels so that the oil drips away from the tenders.
  • 6. Dipping Sauce: Melt 1 stick of butter in microwave and mix with 1/2 cup of Texas Pete.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my chicken tenders turned out really tough. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

These chicken tenders were delicious! I served them with a side of mashed potatoes and green beans and they were a hit with my family.

I loved the flavor of these chicken tenders, but they were a little too dry for my liking. I think I would add a little more butter or oil to the pan next time.

I thought these chicken tenders were just okay. They were a little too spicy for my taste and the breading was a bit too thick.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The chicken tenders were dry and overcooked. I think I will try a different recipe next time.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and the chicken tenders always turn out perfect. I like to use a little extra cayenne pepper to give them a bit more of a kick.

These chicken tenders were a hit with my family! They were crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, with just the right amount of spice. I served them with a side of honey mustard sauce and they were gone in no time.
