Crispy Chicken Salad

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare Chicken

    Cut the chicken breasts into strips. Marinate them in buttermilk for at least 30 minutes (or overnight for best results).

  2. 2

    Coat Chicken

    In a bowl, mix flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Remove the chicken from buttermilk and dredge each strip in the flour mixture until fully coated.

  3. 3

    Fry Chicken

    Heat cooking oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Fry the chicken strips in batches for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Assemble Salad

    In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, diced tomato, and sliced cucumber. Top with crispy chicken strips and shredded cheddar cheese.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately with your favorite dressing.
