Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds chicken tenderloins
- 2 1/2 cups buttermilk
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
- vegetable oil for frying
- honey mustard sauce or other dippings sauce to serve
Instructions
- Soak the chicken strips in the buttermilk for at least 2 hours or ideally overnight.
- Place the flour, salt, pepper, and garlic salt in a shallow bowl and mix well. Add about 1/2 cup of the buttermilk that was used to soak the chicken and stir. The batter should have a shaggy texture. Discard the remaining buttermilk.
- Coat the chicken with the batter, place it on a rack, and allow it to dry for a few minutes to help the batter adhere to the chicken during frying.
- Heat the oil to 350°F in a deep fryer or large heavy-bottomed pot.
- Gently place 3 or 4 breaded chicken strips into the hot oil and fry until golden brown. Remove from the oil and drain on a clean wire rack over a rimmed baking sheet.
- Serve with honey mustard or other dipping sauce.
