Buttermilk Chicken Skewers Recipes

GRILLED BUTTERMILK CHICKEN TENDERS WITH DIPPING SAUCES

Chicken tenders grill quickly-almost too quickly, resulting in dryness. But not with these skewers, which benefit from a buttermilk brine and a blanket of bacon. Serve them with a choice of two dipping sauces-a creamy ranch and a spicy romesco-that pair nicely with crudités, too.

Steps:

In a bowl or resealable plastic bag, season chicken with salt and pepper. Add buttermilk and scallions, massaging to evenly coat chicken. Refrigerate at least 12 hours and up to 1 day.
Drain chicken; discard scallions. Wrap each tender with a strip of bacon and thread onto skewers, being sure to skewer bacon at top and bottom of each strip.
Preheat a grill for direct-heat cooking over medium. Brush grates with oil. Add chicken, cover, and cook, turning skewers a few times, until bacon is crisp and chicken is just cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve with tomatoes, cucumbers, and dipping sauces.

Ingredients

1 1/4 pounds chicken tenders (10 to 12), or cutlets sliced lengthwise into 1-inch strips
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
4 scallions, white parts only, halved lengthwise and smashed (light- and dark- green tops reserved for Buttermilk-Scallion Ranch Dipping Sauce)
6 slices bacon (about 8 ounces), preferably center-cut, halved lengthwise (optional)
Vegetable oil, for brushing
Cocktail tomatoes and mini cucumber spears, for serving
Buttermilk-Scallion Ranch and Spicy Romesco Dipping Sauces, for serving

GRILLED BUTTERMILK CHICKEN

I created this recipe years ago after one of our farmers market customers, a chef, shared the idea of marinating chicken in buttermilk. The chicken is easy to prepare and always turns out moist and delicious! I bruise the thyme sprigs by twisting them before adding them to the buttermilk mixture; this tends to release the oils in the leaves and flavor the chicken better. -Sue Gronholz, Beaver Dam, Wisconsin

To marinate the chicken: In a large sealable, combine the chicken tenders with the remaining marinade ingredients. Seal the bag tightly and massage the chicken until it is evenly coated with buttermilk and seasoning. Place in a bowl (in case of leakage) and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to 24 hours.
To make the breading: In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Whisk until well blended, then add the buttermilk and stir with a fork until the mixture is evenly clumpy.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup. Remove the chicken tenders from the marinade a few at a time and toss into the breading mixture. Be sure to press the chicken firmly into the breading so clumps adhere to the meat. (It's a messy job: use one hand to remove the wet tenders from the bag and the other to toss in the breading.) Set breaded tenders on the prepared baking sheet.
To fry the chicken: Line another baking sheet with a few layers of paper towels and set next to the stove. Add oil to a large, high-sided pot until the level reaches about 3/4-inch. Heat over medium-high heat until oil is shimmering (about 350°). (If a cube of bread sizzles when you drop it in, it's ready.) Using tongs, place several chicken tenders in the hot oil without crowding the pan. Cook until golden brown on the bottom side, a few minutes, then flip and cook until the second side is also golden, a few minutes more. Set the cooked tenders on the paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain. Fry remaining tenders in batches adjusting the heat as necessary (if the tenders are browning too fast, lower the heat). Serve hot.
