Chicken Tenders

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into strips about 1 inch wide.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In one bowl, place the flour mixed with half the salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. In a second bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, place the breadcrumbs mixed with the remaining salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dredge each chicken strip in flour, then dip in the egg, and finally coat with breadcrumbs.

  4. 4

    Fry the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken strips in batches, frying until golden and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side.

  5. 5

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the chicken tenders from the skillet and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot.
