Chicken Tenders

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

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

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate shallow bowls, place the flour in the first, whisk the eggs with milk in the second, and mix breadcrumbs with salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder in the third.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dip each chicken strip first into the flour, then into the egg mixture, and finally coat with breadcrumb mixture. Ensure each piece is well-coated.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.

  5. 5

    Fry the Chicken

    Fry the breaded chicken strips in batches for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and drain on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the chicken tenders hot with your choice of dipping sauces.
