Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

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

  2. 2

    Set Up the Breading Station

    In three separate shallow bowls, place the flour, whisked eggs, and bread crumbs. Season the flour with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Coat the Chicken

    Dip each chicken strip first into the seasoned flour, then into the egg, and finally coat it with bread crumbs. Ensure each strip is fully covered.

  2. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Ensure the oil is hot before adding the chicken strips.

  3. 5

    Cook the Chicken

    Place the coated chicken strips in the skillet, cooking for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.

  4. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Once cooked, transfer the chicken tenders to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
