For the Chicken Strips

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into strips, about 1 inch wide. Season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Breading Station

    In one bowl, place the all-purpose flour. In a second bowl, beat the eggs and mix with milk. In a third bowl, add the bread crumbs.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken Strips

    Dredge each chicken strip in flour, shaking off the excess. Dip into the egg mixture, then coat with bread crumbs, pressing to adhere.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large frying pan, heat the cooking oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  5. 5

    Fry the Chicken Strips

    Carefully place the breaded chicken strips in the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the chicken strips from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce.
