Aviator Eats: Yankee Stadium Grub Tub

Aviator Eats: Yankee Stadium Grub Tub

We’re celebrating the announcement that MLB is coming back by replicating a Yankee Stadium staple, The Grub Tub. Legends Hospitality who manage concessions at Aviator Sports are also the food partner of Yankee Stadium so when we’re open you can still get the same chicken tender and fries experience.

We’ve “healthified” this recipe by air frying the chicken tenders and using a two-temperature cooking process to get crispy fries in the oven. This recipe will make two “tub” sized servings

Chicken Tender Ingredients

• 1.5 LBS chicken tenders (about 12)
• 1/2 Cup bread crumbs
• 1/2 Cup panko bread crumbs
• 2 eggs
• Seasonings of your choice
• Dipping sauce of your choice

Chicken Tender Recipe

• Mix together the bread crumbs and panko in a bowl
• In a separate bowl crack the eggs and mix them with a fork
• Season tenders with your chosen seasonings
• Put the seasoned tenders in the eggs and coat all of them
• Individually take the tenders out of the eggs and shake off excess
• Dip the tenders in the bread crumb bowl and with your other hand coat thoroughly
• Place the tenders in the air fryer set to 400 degrees and cook for 6 minutes and then flip and cook for another 6 mintues (follow your air fryers instructions
• OPTIONAL: Transfer the cooked tenders to a bowl and coat with the sauce of your choice (we went with honey BBQ)
