This is great recipe to serve at your next party. It would also be great if you have a group of teenagers in the house. But be prepared - you will need to make a lot of these. They are yummy!

How to Make Best Darn Chicken Tenders
- 1Prepare chicken - slice into even pieces, as similar in size as you can get. Liberally season with garlic, onion and creole seasoning, just one side and toss together.
- 2Get out two bowls - In one add 2 cups of flour, 1 tablespoon creole seasoning, salt, and garlic powder. Whisk together.
In the second bowl - add eggs, 1/4 cup flour, 1/4 cup milk and 1 tablespoon oil. Whisk until smooth. - 3Heat enough oil in a deep pan or deep fryer - I use my wok; to cover chicken once placed in oil. Or you can flip them as they cook, if you don't have enough oil to cover. Heat the oil to 350 degrees.
- 4When the oil is hot enough. Dredge chicken in the egg mixture, then coat with flour mixture. Drop into hot grease. They will float when done. ( about 8 - 10 minutes ). I always cook until golden.
Add only 8 - 10 pieces at a time, depending how big your pan is. You don't want to over crowd; or will cool down your grease too quickly, leaving you with greasy chicken...You may want to adjust heat as you go... if it gets to be too hot, but you want it hot enough to crisp the chicken. - 5As each batch is cooked, drain on paper towels. While hot I sprinkle with salt or creole seasoning.
Serve with my delicious Honey Mustard and Peanut Butter dipping sauces. Both are posted with my recipes... Delicious!! - 6Adding the honey mustard as well...
3/4 c mayonnaise
3 Tbsp honey
3 Tbsp yellow mustard
1 Tbsp lemon juice
hot pepper sauce - a few dashes ( optional )
Combine all ingredients together in a medium sized bowl.
Stir until blended and chill until ready to serve.
