1
Prepare the Chicken
Cut the chicken breast fillets into strips, about 1 inch wide. This should yield approximately 6 strips.
2
Set Up Your Breading Station
In three separate shallow bowls, set up your breading station: one for flour mixed with salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder; one for beaten eggs; and one for breadcrumbs.

3
Coat the Chicken
Take each chicken strip and first dredge it in the seasoned flour, shaking off excess. Then dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, coat it in breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
4
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). You can test the oil by dropping in a small piece of bread; if it sizzles, it's ready.
5
Fry the Chicken Strips
Carefully place the breaded chicken strips into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C).
6
Drain and Serve
Once cooked, transfer the chicken strips to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce.
