Step 1

Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Cut chicken lengthwise into 1 inch strips. Place chicken on a plate; coat with 1 tbsp tempura batter mix.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine sour cream, half the fry seasoning, and a big pinch of salt and pepper. Add 1 tsp water at a time until mixture reaches the consistency of whole milk.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, combine cornstarch and remaining tempura batter mix, remaining fry seasoning and a pinch of salt and pepper.

Step 4

Working in batches, drip coated chicken into sour cream mix until fully coated. Shake off extra liquid and press each piece into tempura mixture until fully coated. Shake off extra mixture. Return fully coated chicken to plate.

Step 5

Heat 1/3 inch of oil in a large, heavy bottomed pan over medium-high heat. Once oil is hot enough that a pinch of tempura mix sizzles when added to the pan. Working in batches, add coated chicken in an even layer. Cook for 1 minute then reduce heat to medium and cook until browned and cooked through, 3-5 minutes per side.

Step 6

Transfer chicken to a paper towel lined plate; season with salt.
