Tempura Chicken Fingers - crispy fried chicken. These chicken fingers are seriously THE BEST!! Super easy to make. Coat chicken in a mixture of flour, salt, water, vinegar and baking soda. Fry until golden brown. Ready to eat in under 15 minutes! Great weeknight meal!
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, salt, and water. In a separate bowl, combine the vinegar and baking soda (it will foam up) and pour into the flour mixture.
Pour oil to a depth of 2 inches in a large Dutch oven or skillet and heat to 350ºF.
Dip the chicken tenders in the tempura batter and shake off excess. Once the oil is hot, fry the tenders in small batches for about 5 minutes and then drain on paper towels.
