Dorm Dash: Chicken Tenders with Loaded Fries

Dorm Dash: Chicken Tenders with Loaded Fries

This is one of my go to meals when I run out of my favorite foods to eat. Chicken tenders are always so easy to make, take little to no effort and you don’t have to stand over your food while it cooks! I also never have to do extra grocery shopping to make this because I always have the ingredients on hand.

Ingredients Needed:

  • Chicken Tenderloins

  • Ground Beef

  • Frozen Fries (for this recipe I used Checkers fries)

  • Colby Jack Shredded Cheese

  • Canola Oil

  • Buttermilk

  • Lawry’s Seasoned Salt

  • Pepper

  • Garlic Powder

  • Onion Powder

  • Texas Pete Hot Sauce

  • Zatarain’s Chicken Fry Mix

Supplies Needed:

  • Air Fryer

  • Pan (for frying)

  • Smaller pan to cook ground beef

Directions

  1. Not to be controversial but I do wash my chicken before cooking it. So I wash my chicken, take off the extra skin and blood and put it into a clean bowl

    • After washing your chicken be sure to wash your hands thoroughly and clean all knobs or anything else in the sink that I may have touched.

  2. After this step I season my chicken in the bowl using garlic powder, onion powder, pepper and Lawry’s seasoning

    • After everything is seasoned I add a cup of buttermilk into the bowl along with about two tablespoons of hot sauce.

  3. Since I’m only making three tenders I’m able to bread and put it straight into my oil filled pan. The chicken tenders take about 5 minutes on each side to cook.

  4. After washing my hands I put my fries into the air fryer and set the time and temperature according to the bag directions

  5. While my fries are in the air fryer cooking I put about two ounces (measure two lines on the package) onto the pan and allow that to cook until brown. Afterwards I add a little bit of Lawry’s seasoning

  6. Once the tenders are complete I put them on a napkin and let the grease come off while assembling my fries

    • I add the ground beef onto the fries and then add the shredded cheese
