Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 1 pound Chicken tenderloins
  • 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup Flour
  • 2 large Eggs beaten
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Pepper
For the Bang Bang Sauce
  • 1/2 cup Mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup Sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Sriracha adjust to taste

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Season the chicken tenderloins with salt and pepper.
  2. Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs.
  3. Dredge each tenderloin in flour, dip in the eggs, and coat with panko breadcrumbs.
Cooking
  1. Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large pot to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Carefully add the breaded chicken tenderloins to the hot oil, frying until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-6 minutes.
  3. Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oil and drain on paper towels.
Making the Sauce
  1. In a separate bowl, mix together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha to make the bang bang sauce.
  2. Drizzle the bang bang sauce over the fried chicken and serve hot.

Notes

If you have leftovers, let the chicken cool down and store it in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. To reheat, place it in the oven or an air fryer to keep the crispiness. Adjust the sriracha in the sauce for your desired spice level.
