When I toured the Southern Living Test Kitchen a couple of months ago, one of the other bloggers on the trip asked the Test Kitchen Director, Robby Melvin, how they continue to come up with new recipes month after month. His answer really resounded with me. He said that it’s not about reinventing the wheel and coming up with completely new recipes, it’s about taking ideas and recipes that have been around forever and putting a Southern Living spin on it. Just because someone has made fried chicken a million times doesn’t mean that there can’t be another fried chicken with its own twist.
As part of my amazing trip to Alabama and my partnership with Delta for the #Happimess campaign , we were challenged to come up with a Southern Living inspired recipe. I went home and gave my husband that challenge and he immediately came up with the idea of making fried chicken tenderloins with a sweet corn puree. And you guys, they turned out AMAZING, probably one of the best meals we’ve had at home in the past few years.
If you want a non-breaded chicken recipe, try this almond chicken . It’s equally amazing, especially when enjoyed with these easy mashed potatoes !

This is the perfect summer dinner when fresh sweet corn is overflowing in the grocery stores and farmer’s markets. And you can eat the fried chicken and corn puree separately, but the crisp chicken complements the smooth and creamy puree, so they’re definitely better eaten together.
I know some people say that fried chicken isn’t good unless it’s on the bone but guess what, I don’t like eating chicken off a bone, so my husband made it boneless. And it is good. Start by cutting your chicken into small tenderloins then breading it and placing it on a pan with parchment paper. And don’t forget to wear gloves and/or wash your hands often since you’re dealing with raw chicken.
Once you’re done breading the chicken, you’ll fry it in oil until it’s completely cooked inside. Then let it rest until it’s cool enough to eat. While the chicken is cooling, make the corn puree then eat the two together with a little sprig of micro greens, for a delicious Southern Living inspired dinner.
