Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin strips to make fries.

  2. 2

    Fry the Fries

    In a deep fryer or a large pot, heat the cooking oil over medium-high heat. Add the potato strips and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt to taste.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Chicken

    While the fries are cooking, set up a breading station: Place flour in one bowl, beaten eggs in another, and breadcrumbs mixed with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika in a third bowl.

  4. 4

    Bread the Chicken

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

  5. 5

    Fry the Chicken

    In another pot or the same pot used for fries (after removing the fries), heat more oil if necessary. Fry the breaded chicken strips until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Plate the crispy chicken tenders alongside the fries and serve hot.
