Method

Chicken Tenders

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breasts into strips, about 1 inch wide.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate shallow bowls, place flour in the first bowl, beaten eggs in the second bowl, and breadcrumbs mixed with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika in the third bowl.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

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

  4. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a large frying pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.

  5. 5

    Fry the Chicken

    Carefully add the breaded chicken strips to the hot oil. Fry in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the chicken tenders from the oil and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Keep warm until ready to serve.

Fries

  1. 7

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the potatoes and cut them into even strips, about 1/4 inch thick.

  2. 8

    Soak the Potatoes

    Place the cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch, then drain and pat dry with paper towels.

  3. 9

    Heat Oil

    In a large frying pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat until hot.

  4. 10

    Fry the Fries

    Carefully add the potatoes to the hot oil in batches. Fry for about 5-7 minutes until golden and crispy.

  5. 11

    Drain and Season

    Remove the fries from the oil and place on a paper towel-lined plate. Sprinkle with salt and toss to coat.

  6. 12

    Serve

    Serve the fries hot alongside the chicken tenders.
