Crispy, golden and succulent on the inside, beer-batter chicken tenders are the best treat you can have for your next house party. Here is the easy-peasy recipe.

Ingredients:

6 chicken tenders 1 cup all-purpose flour 1 cup cold beer ½ tsp baking soda ½ tsp garlic powder ½ tsp onion powder ½ tsp paprika powder ½ tsp dried rosemary ½ tsp black pepper Salt, to taste Oil, to fry 

Step 1

Wash, clean and pat dry the chicken tenders. Bash them a bit with a rolling pin to thin them out a little.

Step 2

Place the all-purpose flour, baking soda, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika powder, black pepper, dried rosemary and salt.

Step 3

Mix everything thoroughly then gradually add in the cold beer to make a thick batter. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes.

Step 4

Heat the oil properly in a wok. Test if it by dropping a few drops of the batter: if the batter fries up immediately, proceed.

Step 5

Dip the chicken tenders in the beer batter and coat it properly. Place in the hot oil and deep fry until golden brown.

Step 6

Serve the beer batter chicken tenders with a side of dip, fries and lemon wedges.
