1
Prepare the Chicken
Begin by trimming the chicken breasts to remove any excess fat. Cut each breast into strips, approximately 1 inch wide.
2
Set Up Breading Station
In three separate bowls, prepare the dredging station: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and another with breadcrumbs mixed with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

3
Coat the Chicken Strips
Take each chicken strip, first coat it in flour, shaking off any excess. Then dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing the excess to drip off, and finally coat it in the seasoned breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
4
Heat the Oil
In a large frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers and is hot enough for frying.
5
Fry the Chicken Strips
Carefully add the coated chicken strips to the hot oil in batches, avoiding overcrowding. Fry for about 4-5 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
6
Drain and Serve
Once cooked, remove the chicken strips from the pan and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauces.
