Chicken Fingers

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into strips to form fingers. Pat them dry with a paper towel.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate bowls, place flour in the first, beaten egg in the second, and breadcrumbs mixed with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika in the third.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dip each chicken strip first into the flour, then into the beaten egg, and finally coat it in the breadcrumb mixture.

  4. 4

    Cook the Chicken Fingers

    Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken fingers and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.

  5. 5

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the chicken fingers from the pan and place them on a paper towel to drain excess oil. Serve hot.
