APPETIZERS
Prepare the Chicken
Cut the chicken breasts into strips approximately 1 inch wide.
Set Up Breading Station
In three separate shallow bowls, place the flour, beaten eggs, and a mixture of breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Coat the Chicken Strips
Dip each chicken strip first into the flour, then into the eggs, and finally coat thoroughly with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Fry the Chicken Strips
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken strips in batches, cooking for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Make the Basil Parmesan Dipping Sauce
In a small bowl, combine the remaining grated Parmesan cheese, chopped basil, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix until well combined.
Serve
Serve the crispy chicken strips hot with the basil Parmesan dipping sauce on the side.
