Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat to 350°F. Place chicken tenders in large bowl and pour in ¼ cup Kung Pao Sauce and flour; toss to coat evenly. Dip chicken in eggs and then coat each with bread crumbs. Cook chicken in batches in hot oil until crispy and no longer pink (165°F), about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate after frying. Serve immediately with remaining Kung Pao sauce for dipping.
This recipe is great for kids or dressed up for adults. For a special presentation, finish your plate by drizzling cooked tenders with kung pao sauce, sprinkling with crushed peanuts and garnishing with fresh cilantro.
