Crunchy Buffalo Tenders




Whenever we watch football, there's always something on the menu involving hot sauce.  I love boneless buffalo tenders, however they always seem to be somewhat soggy. 

The secret to ultra crispy boneless buffalo wings you ask?...Dorritos! 

Here's what you'll need...

16 Dorrito chips, crushed finely
2-3 boneless chicken breasts, cut into cubes
1 C flour
2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1 egg
1 C milk
1/2 C hot sauce
1/2 stick butter
6 C vegetable oil (for frying)
Blue Cheese Dressing
Carrots
Celery

Combine flour, doritos, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl. 

In another bowl, whisk together egg and milk. 

Dip chicken pieces into the egg mixture, then dip in the four mixture.  Once all pieces have been coated, repeat for a second coating.  Place on platter and refrigerate for 20 minutes.

Preheat oil in a fryer or dutch oven to 275 degrees.

Working in batches, fry chicken in oil for 5-6 minutes, until browned and cooked through.  Drain on paper towels (a brown bag is even better!)

Melt butter in small saucepan and add hot sauce, until melted and blended.

Pour sauce into a deep bowl and add chicken, coating thoroughly. 

Serve with blue cheese dressing, carrot and celery sticks.  Enjoy!!

Use leftovers (if any!) to make a buffalo salad!!!
