Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into tenders (about 1-inch wide).

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate bowls, place flour, beaten egg, and breadcrumbs mixed with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Coat each chicken tender first in flour, then dip in the egg, and finally coat with the breadcrumb mixture.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat.

  5. 5

    Fry the Tenders

    Once the oil is hot, add the breaded chicken tenders. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the tenders from the skillet and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot.
