Method

For the Chicken Fingers

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into strips, about 1 inch wide.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate bowls, place the flour in the first bowl, beat the eggs in the second bowl, and place the breadcrumbs mixed with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika in the third bowl.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dip each chicken strip first in flour, shaking off the excess, then in the beaten eggs, and finally coat with the breadcrumb mixture. Ensure each piece is well-coated.

  4. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.

  5. 5

    Cook Chicken Fingers

    Fry the breaded chicken strips in batches, cooking for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

For the Fries

  1. 6

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into fries, about 1/4 inch thick.

  2. 7

    Soak the Fries

    Soak the cut fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. This will help them become crispier.

  3. 8

    Heat Oil for Frying

    In a deep fryer or large pot, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  4. 9

    Fry the Potatoes

    Drain and pat dry the soaked fries. Fry them in batches for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown, then remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  5. 10

    Season the Fries

    While still hot, sprinkle the fries with salt and toss to coat evenly.
