Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the boneless chicken breasts into tender-sized strips, approximately 1 inch wide.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate bowls, set up your breading station. In the first bowl, place the all-purpose flour mixed with salt and black pepper. In the second bowl, beat the eggs. In the third bowl, add the breadcrumbs.

Breading and Cooking

  1. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Take a chicken strip, coat it in flour, shaking off the excess. Then, dip it into the beaten eggs, and finally coat it with breadcrumbs. Repeat for all chicken strips.

  2. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  3. 5

    Cook the Chicken Tenders

    Carefully place the breaded chicken tenders in the hot oil. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/75°C).

  4. 6

    Drain and Keep Warm

    Once cooked, transfer the chicken tenders to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Keep warm in a low oven (around 200°F/93°C) until ready to serve.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve with Sauce

    Plate the chicken tenders and serve with your choice of sauce on the side or drizzled over the tenders.
