The magic behind crunch and sauce

  • Double Crunch: My version uses a double coating for the extra crunch you’d expect from the real product.
  • Air Fryer Available: Don’t like fried food? are you okay. Includes instructions for using an air fryer that still gives you a crispy finish.
  • Built-in Flavors: The spices are incorporated into the marinade and breadcrumbs, so each bite has the same bold flavor you get at Cane’s.

Grow Cane’s Chicken Tenders Ingredients

  • Bring on the heat! Add 1-2 teaspoons of hot sauce to the marinade and a pinch or two of cayenne pepper to the breadcrumbs for extra heat.
  • Buttermilk: If you don’t have buttermilk, make it yourself. It’s not that thick so the crumbs might not stick together, but pinching it might work.
  • chicken: Remove the tendons from chicken tenders before marinating, or use chicken breasts cut into vertical, even pieces.

How to Make a Cane Raised Chicken

If you want to eat Cane’s but don’t want to leave the house or pay higher restaurant prices. You can make it at home, and it’s easier than you think!

  1. Trimmed and Seasoned Chicken: Trim chicken, removing tendons. Place chicken in a large bowl. Add buttermilk, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika to the bowl with chicken.
  2. Marinade: Toss everything together until well mixed and the chicken is completely coated. Marinate for at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours.
  3. Heat the oil and make the breadcrumbs: When ready to fry, add 5 to 6 cups of vegetable oil to a large, deep pot until about 2 inches deep. Heat over high heat until it reaches 350°F. Meanwhile, combine flour, cornstarch, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika in a large bowl.
  4. Dip chicken in breadcrumbs: Remove chicken strips from marinade, one at a time, allowing excess marinade to drip off, then add to breadcrumb mixture.
  5. Double dip: Coat each chicken piece completely with breadcrumb mixture. Press it onto the chicken with your hands, then dip it back into the marinade and then back into the flour mixture. This double breading provides a flakier coating.
  6. Fry and Drain: Fry the breaded chicken for 5 to 7 minutes, turning the tenders halfway through, until the thickest part reaches 165°F. Transfer to a baking pan or wire rack lined with paper towels to drain. Serve Raging Cane’s Chicken Tenders with crinkle cut fries, coleslaw and Cane sauce.

Air fryer options

Don’t want fried food? Brush and air fry the breaded chicken tenders, then air fry at 400°F for 12 minutes, turning halfway through and lightly oiling again.
