Crunchy Oat Fried Chicken Tender

Ingredients:

6 chicken tenders (large)

1 egg (place in a wide bowl and lightly beaten)

Rolled Oats (pour into a plate)

Enough oil for frying

Marinade:

1 tsp. salt

Pinches of white and black pepper (grounded)

1 tbsp. grated ginger

1 tbsp. grated garlic

1 tsp. red chili powder

1/2 tsp. white vinegar

Flour coating: (mix in a wide bowl)

2 tbsp. plain flour

1 tbsp. cornflour

1 tbsp. garlic powder

1 tsp. Tumeric powder

Dashes of ground black pepper

1/4 tsp. salt

Methods:

1. In a bowl, add in the chicken tenders and all the marinade ingredients.  Combine well to ensure even marination, and leave it in the fridge, covered until time of cooking.
2. When it is time for cooking, get all the ingredients ready.
3. In a heated saucepan, add enough oil for frying.
4. First, roll each pieces of the marinated chicken tenders in the flour coating and arrange them in a plate.
5. Dip the coated chicken with beaten egg.
6. Coat chicken with oats.  Ensure they are evenly coated.
7. Place the coated chicken into the hot oil. I use medium-low heat.  Do not over-crowd the pan.  I fry mine in batches.  Fry until the oat coating becomes golden and crisp.  Remove from oil and repeat until all is done.
8. Serve immediately to enjoy the crunch.
9. I serve mine with Pasta Salad using my homemade Thousand Island Dressing.
