1
Prepare the Chicken
Slice the chicken breast into tenders. Pat them dry with paper towels.
2
Set Up Breading Stations
In three separate bowls, place flour in the first, beaten eggs in the second, and breadcrumbs mixed with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika in the third.
3
Bread the Chicken
Dip each chicken tender first in the flour, then in the egg, and finally coat it with the breadcrumb mixture. Set aside on a plate.
4
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the cooking oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
5
Fry the Chicken Tenders
Carefully place the breaded chicken tenders in the hot oil, cooking in batches if necessary. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
6
Drain and Serve
Remove the chicken tenders from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your choice of side.
