Fries made from spicy chicken breast are delicious and crunchy. Tender chicken, a few spices, sauces, and bread crumbs make up this easy recipe. This recipe is all the rave at my home, and my kids can’t get enough of it. Crunchy and spicy, these treats are perfect as an appetizer with salads, a topping for burgers or sandwiches, a side dish with spaghetti or pasta, or a snack with hot drinks or wine. These crispy, spicy chicken bites accompanied by red wine are a favorite for my friends. I should have written more here. I hope you give this recipe a shot and get a magical experience out of it.

Ingredients:

6 large chicken fillets. Cut length wise in strips. Rinse thoroughly, cover, and leave in the colander.

Ingredients for the marinade:
2 tbsp. full cream yogurt
1 tbsp. ginger and garlic paste
1 tsp. Kashmiri red chili powder
1 tsp. garam masala
1  tsp. cumin powder
1 tsp. salt
2 eggs
Mix all the above ingredients and set aside.
For the coating:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp. crushed black pepper
1/2 tsp. fine salt
1/2 tsp. chaat masala
1/2 tsp. Kashmiri red chili powder
Mix well, and set aside.
I am also using corn flakes. Use a rolling pin to finely crush the cornflakes.
1 1/2 tbsp. of chaat masala. Mix well.
Whisk the eggs and set them aside.
Dip the fillets into the whisked egg, coat well with flour or cornflakes, and set aside.
Now we are ready to fry on medium heat and enjoy!

  • Choose chicken fillets for this recipe.
  • Make sure that your oil is hot enough for frying; if not, the chicken fillets will turn soggy.
  • Once the oil is hot enough for frying, adjust the heat level and fry.
  • Try to cut chicken fillets into thin and even pieces; they will cook fast at the same time.
  • Do not overcook fillets; they will burn on the outside and harden on the inside.

Advice on Recipes and Cooking.

Keep that wire rack in mind. If you decide to bake, use a wire rack to bake chicken tenders until they are crispy. It works similarly to an air fryer basket in that it distributes the hot air evenly around the tenders, preventing the bottoms from steaming and becoming soggy.
Make sure the breading is done well. Before pressing the chicken into the breadcrumb mixture, shake off any excess marinade and allow any excess egg to drip off as well. In my experience, if my fingers are already covered in egg and breadcrumbs, the breadcrumbs are more likely to fall off. So, if your fingers become gunky (yep, that’s a technical term), just wipe them off. Last but not least, spray the wire rack well with cooking spray. This will prevent the breadcrumbs from adhering to the rack and falling off once the chicken is baked.

Find out when the fillets are cooked through. Cooking chicken tenders for 8 to 10 minutes is recommended for the best results. Poking the tenders with a fork or knife will reveal their internal juices; if they run clear, it’s a good sign that they’re done cooking, though the precise amount of time will vary depending on their size and thickness.

Fry for 5 minutes per side in a pan over medium heat.

Do Not Cook for Too Long. Don’t forget to check the chicken after 5 to 7  minutes or when the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F to make sure it doesn’t overcook.
