Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into strips, about 1 inch wide.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate bowls, place the flour in the first bowl, beaten eggs in the second, and bread crumbs mixed with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika in the third.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dip each chicken strip first in the flour, then in the egg, and finally in the bread crumb mixture, ensuring they are well coated.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

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

  5. 5

    Fry the Chicken

    Carefully add the breaded chicken strips to the hot oil in batches, frying for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the chicken fingers and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with ranch, honey mustard, or blue cheese dressing.
