Prepare the Chicken
Cut the chicken breasts into strips about 1 inch wide. Pat them dry with paper towels.

Set Up Dredging Stations
In one shallow dish, place the flour mixed with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. In a second shallow dish, beat the eggs. In a third shallow dish, place the bread crumbs.

Dredge the Chicken
Coat each chicken strip first in the flour mixture, shaking off the excess. Then dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off, and finally coat it with the bread crumbs, pressing lightly to adhere.
Cooking

Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until shimmering but not smoking.

Fry the Chicken Tenders
Carefully add the coated chicken strips to the skillet (do not overcrowd) and fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- 6
Drain and Serve
Remove the chicken tenders from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces.
