It’s Big Game time, my friends. These Crispy Ranch Chicken Tender Sliders are loud, crunchy, juicy, and built to disappear fast—extra pickles, extra flavor, and pure game-day energy. The pickle-juice marinade brings that tangy, fast-food-style bite while keeping the chicken super tender, and a little cornstarch in the breading takes the crispiness to the next level. Make a batch… then make another, because these won’t last long. Yum yum, get ya sum!

Quick tip before you start: take a minute to remove the tendons from your chicken tenders. I like using a pair of pliers and a small knife, it’s simple and totally worth it.

Ingredients

1 packet Dan-O’s Dips Ranch
1 lbs Chicken tenders (de-tendoned)
Slider buns
2 cups buttermilk
1 cup Pickle juice
12-16 Pickles (sliced)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tbsp baking powder
¼ cup Cornstarch

Preparation Instructions

Flatten the Chicken: Lay chicken tenders flat. Cover with plastic wrap and gently pound with a meat mallet to an even thickness (about ½ inch).
Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, combine the buttermilk and pickle juice. Submerge flattened chicken in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for a couple of hours.
Prepare the Crispy Breading: In a bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, baking powder, cornstarch, and the Dan-O’s Dip Ranch. Mix well to combine.
Bread the Chicken: Put the seasoned flour mixture in a shallow bowl or dish. Take one piece of chicken out of the marinade and let the excess drip off. Place the chicken in the seasoned flour. Flip and press it into the flour until it’s fully coated on all sides. Lift it out and gently shake off the extra flour. Repeat with the rest.
Fry the Chicken:Fry breaded chicken tenders until crispy and golden.
Build the Sliders: Place crispy chicken tenders on slider buns. Top with pickles (extra pickle recommended). Serve as mini sliders. Yum Yum Get Ya Sum!
