Chicken Fingers

Method

Preparation Steps

1

Prepare the Chicken

Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips.

2

Set Up Breading Stations

In one bowl, place the flour mixed with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. In a second bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. In a third bowl, place the bread crumbs.

3

Breading the Chicken

Dip each chicken strip first into the flour mixture, then into the egg mixture, and finally coat with bread crumbs. Ensure each piece is well covered.

4

Heat the Oil

In a large skillet or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches about 350°F (175°C).

5

Fry the Chicken

Carefully place the breaded chicken strips into the hot oil, frying in batches if necessary. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

6

Drain and Serve

Remove the chicken fingers from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with honey mustard for dipping.
