Tender chicken strips hand-breaded and fried to perfection.
Begin by cutting the chicken breast into strips of desired thickness.
Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls: one for flour, one for beaten eggs, and one for bread crumbs.
In the flour bowl, mix the all-purpose flour with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Dredge each chicken strip in the seasoned flour, shaking off excess, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with bread crumbs.
In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat until hot.
Carefully add the breaded chicken strips to the hot oil, frying in batches if necessary. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the chicken tenders from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve the chicken tenders hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
