Ingredients
Chicken Crispers
- 1 pound chicken tenders
- 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 egg
- 1 cup club soda plus 2 tablespoons
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour for dredging
Honey Mustard
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne
- 1/4 cup honey
- vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- Preheat the oil to 350 degrees F.
- Make the batter by first combining the club soda and the egg together. Whisk together until they form a uniform mixture.
- Then add in the dry ingredients: 1 1/2 cups flour, baking powder, salt, pepper. Stir together. Allow the batter to sit for a few minutes.
- Remove chicken from package and pat dry with a paper towel.
- Dredge the chicken in 1/2 cup flour. Shake off excess flour.
- Dip floured chicken into the batter and fry a few pieces at a time. If there is any additional batter left over, you could make some onion rings, but the excess batter should be discarded.
- Prepare honey mustard by combining mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, cayenne, and honey. Stir well. You can store the honey mustard for about a week in your refrigerator.
