My 200 Million View Chicken Tender Recipe

This is the base to one of my favorite chicken tender recipes of all time. You can easily change the sauce combo, but I guarantee you these will be the best tenders you’ll ever have.

Here is the full recipe

2 lbs chicken tenders

¼ cup flour

1 tsp kosher salt

1 tsp black pepper

1 tsp chipotle chili powder

1 tsp cayenne pepper

1 tsp paprika

1 tsp garlic powder

Dredge Coating:

2 cups flour

⅔ cup cornstarch

2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp kosher salt

1 tsp black pepper

½ chipotle chili powder

½ tsp cayenne pepper

½ tsp paprika

1 tsp garlic powder

12 oz sparkling water or club soda

Chipotle Honey Sauce:

⅓ cup hot sauce

¼ cup chipotle sauce

1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

¼ cup honey

INSTRUCTIONS

In a large bowl toss the chicken tenders with the ¼ cup of flour and spices for the marinade, let sit for 10-15 minutes in the fridge to marinate.

In another large bowl whisk together the flour, cornstarch and spices for the dredge. Transfer ½ cup of the dry dredge to another bowl and whisk in the sparkling water until you have the same consistency as pancake batter.

Preheat your oil to 350 F.

Heat a skillet or small pot over medium high and add the hot sauce and chipotle sauce, bring to a simmer then remove from the heat and stir in the worcestershire sauce and honey. Set aside until ready to serve.

To dredge the chicken, take the seasoned tenders and dredge them in the wet batter, then the dry, then the wet again, then the dry.

Fry the breaded tenders in the preheated oil until light golden and crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Then increase the heat of the oil to 375 F and fry the tenders for another 2-3 minutes until deep golden brown and extra crispy.

Brush all the tenders with the chipotle honey sauce until fully coated and serve with your favorite dipping sauce on the side.

  3. Hi Ahmad! You asked what we thought about this video. Congratulations on the 200M views 🎉 However, I think this video is missing closeup shots. Like, as you're mixing the flours, breading the chicken, mixing the sauce..I actually wanted to see what's going on inside your bowl. I want to see the texture, how your hand do the breading process, what the color of the sauce should be. It's ok to have a wider shot for when you're explaining things. But closeup shots of your food is always so satisfying, I hope we can get them back ☺ Salam, from Indonesia
