Fry the Chicken Strips
Dip each seasoned chicken strip into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated. Carefully place the strips into the hot oil, cooking in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to remove the strips and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
