Instrucțiuni

Marinate chicken tenders in buttermilk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika for at least 1 hour.

Place flour in a bowl for the first dry mix.

In a separate bowl, mix rice flour, potato flour, and water to form a wet batter.

In a third bowl, combine all ingredients for the second dry mix.

Dredge each chicken tender in flour, then dip in the wet batter, and finally coat thoroughly in the second dry mix.

Heat oil to 350°F (175°C). Fry chicken for 6–7 minutes, then set aside to rest.

Increase oil to 420°F (215°C) and fry again for 2–3 minutes until golden brown. Rest on a wire rack.

For the sauce, combine honey, hot sauce, chili flakes, and lemon juice in a pan. Simmer until thickened.

Toss the crispy tenders in the sauce until coated.

Serve and optionally garnish with scallions and sesame seeds.
