Ingredients

Scale

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
2 large eggs
½ cup hot sauce (your choice)
½ cup butter (unsalted)
Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

Cut chicken breasts into tender-sized strips and pat dry with paper towels.
Create a breading station: whisk eggs in one bowl and mix flour, paprika, salt, and pepper in another.
Dip each chicken strip into the egg mixture, then coat with the flour mixture evenly.
Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat and fry chicken tenders for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt butter and combine it with hot sauce; stir until blended. Adjust spice level as desired.
Drain cooked tenders on paper towels and toss them in the buffalo sauce before serving hot.
