Chicken Strips

Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce

Method

Chicken Strips

  1. 1

    Prepare Chicken

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

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three bowls, place flour in one, beaten eggs in the second, and breadcrumbs mixed with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder in the third.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dip each chicken strip first into the flour, then into the eggs, and finally coat with the breadcrumb mixture.

  4. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the cooking oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  5. 5

    Fry Chicken Strips

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

Fries

  1. 6

    Prepare Potatoes

    Wash and peel the russet potatoes, then cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.

  2. 7

    Soak Fries

    Soak the cut fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

  3. 8

    Heat Oil for Frying

    In a separate deep skillet or fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  4. 9

    Fry Potatoes

    Carefully add the soaked potatoes to the hot oil in batches, frying for about 5-7 minutes per batch or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels, then season with salt and paprika.

Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce

  1. 10

    Mix Sauce Ingredients

    In a small bowl, combine honey, Dijon mustard, and mayonnaise. Stir until smooth and well combined.
