In a large bowl, combine buttermilk, a generous amount of hot sauce, a tiny drop of mustard, flour, and seasonings. Whisk until it reaches the consistency of a thick pancake batter.

Submerge the chicken tenders in the batter and ensure they are well coated. Let them marinate for 4 to 12 hours.

In a separate bowl, mix flour, corn starch, and tempura mixture in a 50/25/25 ratio. Season with your favorite spices.

Take the marinated chicken tenders and coat them thoroughly in the dry batter. Carefully place them into hot oil at 350°F. Fry for a few minutes, then remove, let rest, and fry again for a few minutes to achieve extra golden crispiness.
