  • Popeyes has just released their new Boneless Wings, and unfortunately there are some major problems with this release - regarding both the price as well as the quality. Things aren't looking good.

      Also I like how all these fast food places are coming out with meal deals but the funny thing is that there more expensive than what they were a few years ago like for instance mcdonald's has a drink burger small fries and 4 piece nugget for 5 dollars now but I remember a few years ago like 2-3 it was called 4 for 4 it just shows that they only want money

      People need to stop willfully paying these ungodly prices. As long as they can get away with it and someone will buy it, this will only get worse. Consumers need to boycott fast food in general. Let these companies choke on their greed. Unfortunately the willpower and discipline of most people is such that such an action will likely never happen. 😔

    Make your own, people. Buy a pack of chicken tenders $5 and change here in Texas grocery stores. Throw them in a bowl with a little seasoning. Mix. Throw in some flour. Enough to cover tenders and a bit extra. Throw more seasoning on top of flour. Mix everything well until tenders covered. Heat up some oil and drop them bad boys in. Cook till golden brown. Take out and put on a plate with paper towels.
    Fries. Potatoes. Cheap as hell. Cut potatoes in desired fry shape. Skinny, thick, skin off, skin on. Whatever. Soak fries in bowl of water after cutting. Soak for an hour. The starch will come out of the fries so they wont be soggy. Rinse fries then drain water. It also helps to dry fries with a paper towel or towel but it isn't required. Just makes them a bit more crispier. Then just heat up oil and cook until golden brown. Put some seasoning on fries right when you take them out or just salt.
    Easy. Way cheaper and makes a lot more. I suck at cooking but anybody can follow this.

      better off making a buttermilk marinade with smoked paprika and garlic, salt and pepper and a little cayenne. Mix flour, cornstarch, and a little baking powder. Season with garlic onion coriander smoked paprika salt pepper thyme and msg, sprinkle some of the marinade into the flour to create little crispy pieces, then take the chicken from the marinade and coat it in the flour. That buttermilk will make the chicken more tender plus the flour will stick very well to it. Just coating with flour with no adhesive will be a disappointment

And no, just using flour is not disappointing. You'll get a crispy outside like you would do any other way. More complex ways like your recipe is just for the overrated crunch and extra flair to the flavor. Trust me, I've tried all of them. It's just more work for basically prettier tenders. Less is more.
