Chicken and Coating

Dipping Sauce

Method

Prepare Chicken

  1. 1

    Cut Chicken

    Trim the chicken breast and cut it into strips, about 1 inch wide.

  2. 2

    Season Flour

    In a shallow dish, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well.

Coating Process

  1. 3

    Prepare Egg Wash

    In another shallow dish, beat the eggs until well combined.

  2. 4

    Prepare Breadcrumbs

    Place the breadcrumbs in a third shallow dish.

  3. 5

    Coat Chicken Strips

    Dredge each chicken strip in the seasoned flour, then dip it into the egg wash, and finally coat it with breadcrumbs. Press lightly to ensure the breadcrumbs stick.

Cooking

  1. 6

    Heat Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

  2. 7

    Cook Chicken Tenders

    Add the coated chicken strips to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

  3. 8

    Drain and Serve

    Once cooked, transfer the chicken tenders to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Prepare Dipping Sauce

  1. 9

    Mix Sauce Ingredients

    In a small bowl, combine ketchup, honey, and mustard. Stir until well mixed.
