For an extra crispy crust, consider refrigerating the breaded chicken tenders for 15-20 minutes before frying.
Feel free to experiment with different seasonings in the potato flake mixture. Smoked paprika, onion powder, or cayenne pepper would all be delicious additions.
Ensure the oil is hot enough before adding the chicken tenders; otherwise, they may become soggy.
Serve with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch, honey mustard, or BBQ sauce.
