1
Prepare the Chicken
Cut the chicken breasts into strips about 1 inch wide.
2
Set Up Breading Station
In three separate bowls, place flour in the first bowl, beaten eggs in the second, and breadcrumbs mixed with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder in the third.
3
Bread the Chicken
Coat each chicken strip in flour, dip into the beaten eggs, then roll in the breadcrumb mixture until well coated.
4
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.
5
Fry the Chicken Tenders
Carefully add breaded chicken tenders to the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side 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 choice of house-made ranch or honey mustard.
