There are ordinary fried chicken tenders. Then there are Chef Ahmet’s—they’re packed with flavor at every stage of the process. First, they take a bath in zesty garlic marinade; then they’re breaded with richly spiced blend of crunchy Panko and sesame seeds; finally, they’re deep-fried til gorgeously golden. Use the accompanying cicik—a Turkish sauce that blends thick, creamy yogurt with fresh dill, garlic, cucumber, Feta cheese, and lemon juice—as a refreshingly contrasting dip. A side of hearty Turkish potato salad—tender red-skinned potatoes, red bell pepper, and onion, and lots of fresh dill and parsley—completes this indulgent treat.
