About these turkey tenders
I created a fantastic breading for these turkey tenders by breading turkey tenderloins in crushed potato chips.
The crushed chips adhere to the turkey tenders flawlessly because they are first coated in flour and then beaten eggs. Turkey tenders are really easy to make and so much fun to eat!.
I incorporate a small amount of fresh sage into the crushed potato chips to enhance the Thanksgiving flavor. But what’s turkey without cranberry sauce?.
I like to dip the tenders in a cranberry-raspberry barbecue sauce. The sauce is heavy on cranberries, which makes it perfect for turkey tender dunking. Everyone at your party will love dipping these crunchy turkey tenders into the cranberry barbecue sauce.
And with a satisfying recipe like this, I don’t want to keep it to myself. I’m already starting to plan Friendsgiving at my house!.
If it’s not Thanksgiving and you’re looking for a no-cranberry sauce to dip these turkey tenders into. I have a few ideas for you:
