Dave's Style Hot Chicken Tenders

Step 1: Prepare the marinade [00:04]

In a bowl, submerge the chicken tenders in buttermilk. Add a splash of hot sauce, a squeeze of mustard, one egg, and a mix of paprika and garlic powder. Mix everything well and let it marinate.

Step 2: Prepare the breading [00:16]

In a separate bowl, prepare a mixture of flour, starch, and the same spices used in the marinade (paprika and garlic powder).

Step 3: Bread the chicken [00:21]

Toss the chicken in the dry batter, dip it into the wet marinade, and then back into the dry batter once more.

Step 4: Fry the chicken [00:31]

Deep fry the chicken tenders in oil at 360°F for 5-6 minutes.

Step 5: Prepare the seasoning dust [00:35]

In a bowl, combine paprika, garlic powder, chipotle chili powder, Sazón seasoning, and brown sugar. Add cayenne pepper if you prefer it spicier.

Step 6: Finish and serve [00:41]

Give the tenders a quick dunk back into the hot oil, then generously sprinkle with the seasoning mix. Serve with Dave's sauce.
