Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 1 pound Chicken Tenderloins Substitute with chicken breasts cut into strips if desired.
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour Add a dash of cayenne for extra heat.
  • 1 large Egg Beaten, for binding.
  • 1 cup Panko Breadcrumbs Double-coating recommended for extra crunch.
For the Bang Bang Sauce
  • 1/2 cup Mayonnaise Can swap with ranch dressing.
  • 1/2 cup Thai Chili Sauce Adjust to control heat.
For Garnish
  • 2 stalks Green Onions Optional, for garnish.
  • 1 tablespoon Sesame Seeds Optional, for garnish.

Equipment

  • Deep frying pan
  • Mixing bowls
  • slotted spoon
  • paper towels

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the chicken by setting up a breading station with flour, beaten egg, and panko breadcrumbs. Coat each tenderloin in this order: flour, egg, then panko.
  2. Heat oil in a frying pan to about 350°F (175°C). Ensure the oil is deep enough to submerge the chicken halfway.
  3. Fry the coated chicken tenderloins in batches for about 5–6 minutes until golden brown. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to paper towels to drain.
  4. While the chicken fries, mix equal parts mayonnaise and Thai chili sauce in a bowl. Adjust the heat as desired.
  5. Serve the fried chicken on a platter, drizzled with Bang Bang sauce. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds. Enjoy immediately!

Notes

For crunchiest results, double-coat the chicken. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in an oven to restore crispiness.
