Chicken Tenders Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

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

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate shallow bowls, place flour in one, beaten eggs in the second, and bread crumbs mixed with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika in the third.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dip each chicken strip first in the flour, then in the beaten eggs, and finally coat with the bread crumb mixture.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until hot, about 350°F (175°C).

  5. 5

    Fry the Tenders

    Carefully add the breaded chicken strips to the hot oil. Fry for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the chicken tenders from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve hot.
