Chicken Tenders
Method
Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Chicken
Cut the chicken breasts into strips about 1 inch wide.
Set Up Breading Station
In three separate shallow bowls, place the flour, beaten eggs mixed with milk, and bread crumbs combined with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
Bread the Chicken
Dip each chicken strip first into the flour, then into the egg mixture, and finally coat with breadcrumbs. Ensure each strip is well coated.
Heat the Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the cooking oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Fry the Chicken Tenders
Carefully add the breaded chicken strips to the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
Drain and Serve
Remove the chicken tenders from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauces.
