Method
Preparing Chicken Strips
- 1
Coat Chicken Strips
In a shallow dish, combine flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. In another bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, place the bread crumbs. Dip each chicken strip first in the flour mixture, then in the egg, and finally coat with bread crumbs. Set aside.

Fry Chicken Strips
Heat vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken strips in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer cooked strips to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
