Fried Chicken Tenders Salad Recipes

FRIED CHICKEN DINNER SALAD

Steps:

• Beat egg in a shallow dish.
• Mix bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese together in a shallow dish.
• Season chicken with Cajun seasoning. Dip chicken into beaten egg and dredge in bread crumb mixture, pressing lightly to coat evenly.
• Heat olive oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Cook breaded chicken in the hot oil until golden brown, about 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Drain chicken on paper towels. Slice into strips.
• Divide lettuce, tomato, carrots, and hard-boiled eggs between 2 large pasta bowls. Top with sliced chicken; drizzle salad dressing on top.

Steps:

• Place flour in a shallow bowl. Place breadcrumbs in a separate shallow bowl, and mix with ground black pepper and cayenne pepper. Place eggs and water in a small bowl.
• One piece at a time, coat the chicken in the flour, the eggs and the bread crumbs, and set aside.
• Heat oil in a deep fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In small batches, fry chicken 6 to 8 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove chicken, and drain on paper towels.
• In a separate small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, horseradish, sour cream, Worcestershire sauce and mustard. Mix well, and serve with the chicken for dipping.

FRIED CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• Remove and discard the bones from the chicken. Chop up the meat, with the fried skin, into small pieces (you should have about 6 cups).
• Set aside 1 tablespoon each of the celery, scallions and pickle.
• Whisk together the mayonnaise, pickle brine, buttermilk, yellow mustard and a couple dashes hot sauce in a large bowl. Stir in the remaining celery, scallion and pickle.
• Add the chopped chicken to the bowl and stir gently to combine. Season with salt and more hot sauce if you'd like. Transfer to a large serving bowl and sprinkle with the reserved celery, scallion and pickle. Serve on potato rolls with a few dashes of hot sauce.

FRIED CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• Boil eggs and let them cool.
• Bake chicken tenders according to directions on package(I have also used leftover chicken in this).
• Tear or prepare lettuce as normal.
• Add cheese, tomato, and cucumber to lettuce.
• Cut chicken into bite size pieces and put into lettuce mixture.
• Dice eggs and add into mixture.
• Mix together ranch dressing and barbeque sauce(I use more than above since we love this dressing) and pour desired amount over salad.
• I do individual salads with this instead of mixing all together. The chicken tends to sink to the bottom.
• You can add whatever other veggies you want to it but my kids won't eat onions, peppers, etc so I skip them.

• Chop fried chicken and mix with diced celery, onion, mayo, pepper and Jane's Krazy salt. Mix well and chill for a couple of hours before serving.
• We make sandwiches with it but you can also stuff tomatoes or use it any way you like. Enjoy!

FRIED CHICKEN TENDERS

Steps:

• Combine the water, kosher salt, and sugar in a container to form a brine. Add the chicken tenders and let this marinate in the fridge for 2 hours.
• Combine the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, seasoned salt, black pepper and cayenne pepper in a container and mix very well to combine.
• Mix the eggs and milk in another container.
• Preheat your oil to 350 degrees.
• Dredge the chicken tenders in the flour mixture and pat off excess.
• Dip the tenders in the egg mixture and drain excess.
• Dredge the chicken tenders in the flour a second time and set them on a plate. Put them in the fridge to dry out for about 20 minutes. This will help the coating stick to the chicken better.
• Once the oil is hot, fry the tenders in small batches for about 5 minutes and then drain on paper towels.
• Serve with your favorite dipping sauces!

FRIED CHICKEN TENDERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• While oven is preheating, place 1/2 cup butter or margarine in 9x13 baking dish. Place in oven just until melted.
• Combine biscuit mix, salt, paprika, and pepper in small mixing bowl.
• Place the amount of breading you'll be using in a paper bag. (Whole recipe will coat one whole fryer chicken or about 8 chicken breasts). Place the remainder in a plastic baggie for use at a later time.
• Cut chicken into pieces about 1 inch thick.
• Place chicken pieces in paper bag of breading one at a time and shake to coat.
• Place coated pieces in baking dish with melted butter or margarine.
• Bake at 400 degrees for 50 minutes. Reduce heat to 375 and bake for an additional 10 minutes. If using a convection oven (which is what I use) you'll only need to bake the chicken at 400 for about 40 minutes.
• Serve with your favorite dipping sauce (I prefer honey mustard).
