My oldest son doesn't like fat, and will only eat chicken breast tenders when making fried chicken. He loves KFC's crispy chicken, and asked me to make it! It turned out a bit different, but my son also likes these ones, and said they are delicious!
He always requests that I make this when his friends come over now.

The batter won't stick if it is watery, and will clump up if it is too thick, so adjust the amount of water as necessary.
It should stick well when the meat is rolled in it. Stick it on by hand if it doesn't hold.
The batter will stick well by coating the chicken tenders in tempura flour.
Add the bread crumbs right before frying. Recipe by moj

Steps

1

Cut the chicken tenders in half along the sinews. (Don't worry about them except for the larger ones that are sticking out.)
2

Marinate the meat in a 3:1 ratio of sake and soy sauce. Add in the grated garlic and ginger, and marinate for a while. We will be using the sauce later, so make a lot.
3

Coat the chicken in unlisted tempura flour (or flour). This will help the breading stick well.
4

Mix the soy sauce dressing with enough water to make 150 ml and combine to the tempura flour a bit at a time. Stir well. Finally mix in the panko, and bread the chicken.
5

Fry over a medium~high heat. Frying them twice will make them even crispier! Fry them for a long time to give them a rich flavor.

Tip: These will be crispier with lots of panko. Coat in the breading as soon as you add in the panko! Don't let the panko soak up too much water.
