Here are the steps to recreate this favourite fast food from your kitchen.

Ingredients you’ll need:

For the Chicken Fingers

• Chicken tenders 1 lb (approximately 6-8 tenders).
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup cornstarch for extra crispiness
• 2 teaspoons of garlic powder
• 2 teaspoons of onion powder
• Paprika, 1 tablespoon
• Cayenne pepper, optional (for heat), 1/2 teaspoon
• 1 teaspoon of salt
• Black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon
• 1 egg
• Buttermilk, 1/2 cup (to marinate the chicken).
• Vegetable Oil (for Frying)

For Cane’s sauce:

• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup ketchup
• 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• Half a teaspoon of lemon juice
• 1/4 teaspoon of salt
• Black pepper, 1/4 teaspoon

Crinkle Cut Fries

• Frozen crinkle-cut fries (or fresh potatoes if you prefer to cut them yourself)
• Salt (for seasoning).

Texas Toast

• Texas Toast 4 Slices
• 1 cup unsalted Butter (melted)
• 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
• Parsley dried 1 teaspoon

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Marinate the chicken tenders:

• Trim the chicken to the desired size if not done already. The chicken can be dried with a paper towel.
• Marinate the chicken: In a large bowl, whisk the buttermilk with the egg. Mixture the chicken tenders, making sure they are fully coated. Let the chicken marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes or up to two hours. The tenders will be extra juicy and tender.

2. Prepare the coating for the chicken:

• Prepare the Flour Mixture. In a shallow dish, combine the cornstarch, flour, garlic powder and onion powder. Add paprika (if you are using it), cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Mix until well distributed.
• After marinating, remove the chicken tenders from the buttermilk mixture. Each chicken tender should be dredged in the flour mix, gently pressing to ensure a uniform coating. Place the coated chicken tenders onto a plate or tray.

3. Fry the chicken tenders:

• Heat the oil: In a large saucepan or deep fryer over medium heat, heat the vegetable oils. Oil should be heated to around 350degF (or 175degC). Drop a little flour in the oil to see if it is hot enough. If it sizzles, then it’s good for frying.
• Fry the chicken Tenders. Place the tenders in the hot oil carefully, working in batches. Fry the chicken tenders until golden brown and crisp. Remove the chicken with tongs and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain the excess oil.

4. Cane’s sauce:

• Ingredients to Mix: In a small dish, combine mayonnaise with ketchup. Add garlic powder, paprika and Worcestershire sauce. Also, add salt and black pepper. Stir until the sauce is smooth. If necessary, adjust the seasoning.

5. How to Cook Crinkle Cut Fries

• Follow the instructions on the package to bake frozen crinkle-cut fries in the oven. Peel and cut the potatoes into crinkle-shaped shapes. Then fry them until crispy.
• Season the Fries. Once the fries have become crispy and golden, remove them immediately from the oven or fryer. Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top while still hot.

6. Texas Toast

• Prepare the toast: Melt the Butter in a small dish and add the garlic powder and parsley.
• Toast the bread: Brush the garlic butter mixture on both sides of every Texas toast slice. Place the toast slices on a griddle or skillet heated to medium heat. Grill each side for approximately 2-3 minutes or until golden crisp.

Assembling Raising Cane’s Box Combo

After you’ve assembled all of the components, now it’s time for you to assemble your Raising Cane’s Box Combo.

• Serve 3-4 chicken tenders crispy on a plate.
• Crinkle-Cut Fries: Serve a generous amount of crinkle-cut fries as a side.
• Texas Toast: Serve golden buttery Texas toast.
• Cane’s Sauce – Don’t forget a generous serving of homemade Cane’s Sauce to dip your food in.

Now that you’ve recreated Raising Canes’ Box Combo for your family, it’s time to enjoy!

The Perfect Box Combo:

• Double-coat the Chicken. For an extra crunch, dip chicken tenders in buttermilk again and then coat them with the flour mixture. This will result in a thicker and crunchier crust.
• Avoid overcrowding your pan if you are frying several tenders. Fry in small batches to ensure the oil temperature stays consistent. This helps the chicken remain crispy.
• Fry with fresh oil to get the best results. The taste and texture can be affected by old oil.
• You can customize the fries: Although crinkle-cut fries are traditional, shoestring fries and sweet potato fries are also available.
