Last weekend, I picked up some chicken at the store. So last night, I wanted to use it up while it was still fresh. I had watched Ina Garten make Parmesan chicken, and that inspired me to make chicken tenders.
First, I cut the chicken into smaller pieces. Then I dredged it in flour, followed by an egg. Finally, that got dredged in some highly seasoned bread crumbs. Those went into some hot oil for a few minutes. I have to say that they were really good. The only problem is that I forgot one thing, the Parmesan cheese. Still, they were really good.
What I tried in the seasoning is to come up with my own house seasoning, something a lot of TV chefs/cooks do. I started with some salt, a little bit of pepper, some onion powder, garlic powder, and a hint of cayenne red pepper. A lot of people have their own signature mixture, but I think mine will probably be an evolving/changing thing.
