Chicken Tenders Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast fillets into strips of about 1 inch wide.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate bowls, place the flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs mixed with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dip each chicken strip first in flour, then in the eggs, and finally in the breadcrumb mixture. Ensure each piece is well-coated.

  4. 4

    Cook the Tenders

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken tenders and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the chicken tenders from the skillet and place them on a paper towel to drain excess oil. Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauce.
