Cluckin’ brilliant. We’ve taken your normal tenders and crisped them up in an insane Piri Piri-buttermilk mixture. Give ‘em dip, give ‘em a fry, and enjoy with more Piri Piri. Easy.

Ingredients

  • 500g chicken breast, sliced into strips

  • 250ml buttermilk

  • 3 tbsp Piri Piri (plus extra for dipping)

  • 1 tsp smoked paprika

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 150g plain flour

  • 50g cornflour

  • 1 tsp smoked paprika

  • 1 tsp salt

  • Neutral oil (vegetable or sunflower), for shallow or deep frying

Directions

1

In a bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, Piri Piri, smoked paprika, and salt.

2

Add the chicken, mix well, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 mins.

3

In another bowl, combine the flour, cornflour, smoked paprika, and salt.

4

Remove tenders from the buttermilk, letting excess drip off.

5

Toss each piece in the flour mixture until well coated. For extra crunch, dip back into the buttermilk and flour again.

6

Heat oil to 180°C in a deep pan. Fry tenders in batches for 6-8 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

7

Place on kitchen roll to drain.

8

Serve with a pot of Piri Piri on the side for dipping.
