Steps to make Crispy Chicken Tenders and Steamed Asparagus:
Wash the chicken breasts thoroughly in a colander under running water. Shake off the excess water.
Butterfly the chicken breasts. (Cut open the chicken breasts) with the help of a sharp knife. Further, cut them into halves. Now, you have 4 thin strips from each chicken breast.
Note: Butterflying is a really useful technique to create a uniform thickness throughout a piece of meat, so that it will cook more quickly and evenly.
Combine the all purpose flour, cornstarch, 1 Teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon red chilli powder, onion powder & garlic powder in a large plate.
Beat the eggs in a medium mixing bowl. - - Place the bread crumbs in a dinner plate. - Add 1 teaspoon red chilli powder, 1 teaspoon salt & the cilantro.
Dredge all the chicken breasts in the flour mixture at once. - Dip them one by one in the beaten egg. - Roll in the breadcrumbs to coat well.
Heat oil in a large nonstick pan. Medium-high heat. - - Cook the chicken breasts 5 minutes per side until golden & crisp. Flip a few times. - When almost done, add the butter in the middle of the pan. Lift the pan & do a swirling motion to spread the melted butter all over the pan. The butter at the end takes it to a few notches up. Total bliss!
Serve immediately with steamed veggies of your choice. Asparagus, broccoli, beans, baby carrots, peas are some suggestions.
To steam the Asparagus: - - Cut off about an inch of the hard stem & discard. Cut into two or into small, bite size pieces, if you wish to. Wash thoroughly. - - Heat water in a medium skillet/pan. - When the water comes to a rolling boil, turn the heat off.
Drop the asparagus in the hot water. Cover & leave for 5-6 minutes. I love it crunchy.
Drain the water. Serve hot with a sprinkle of salt & freshly milled pepper. - - Enjoy!
