Ingredients
  

Chicken Tenders
  • 500 g chicken breast strips
  • 1 cup flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp chili flakes
  • Oil for frying
Coleslaw
  • 2 cups coleslaw mix (cabbage, carrots, purple cabbage)
  • Fresh to taste parsley leaves
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp mustard
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper (for sauce)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, mix together paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and chili flakes. Coat the chicken well with this blend.
  2. Dredge each seasoned strip in flour, shaking off excess.
  3. Dip the floured chicken into the beaten eggs, letting excess drip off.
  4. Coat each strip with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to ensure adherence.
Cooking
  1. Heat oil in a large pan until shimmering, then add the chicken strips, frying for 5-7 minutes until golden brown.
Coleslaw Preparation
  1. In a separate bowl, toss the coleslaw mix with freshly chopped parsley.
  2. Combine mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, and black pepper to create the creamy sauce.
Serving
  1. Serve the crispy chicken tenders on a plate with coleslaw beside it. Drizzle the sauce over the chicken and garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes

For variations, consider using gluten-free breadcrumbs or marinating the chicken in buttermilk for a few hours for added flavor. Store leftover tenders in an airtight container for up to three days.
