Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the boneless chicken breasts into tenders, about 1-inch wide.

  2. 2

    Setup Breading Station

    In one bowl, add the all-purpose flour. In a second bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, place the breadcrumbs mixed with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and dried oregano.

Bread the Chicken

  1. 3

    Coat Chicken in Flour

    Dip each chicken tender into the flour, ensuring it is fully coated. Shake off any excess flour.

  2. 4

    Dip in Egg

    Next, dip the floured chicken tender into the beaten eggs, making sure it is fully covered.

  3. 5

    Finally, Coat with Breadcrumbs

    Roll the egg-coated chicken tender in the breadcrumb mixture until it is evenly coated. Place on a plate and repeat for all tenders.

Cooking

  1. 6

    Heat the Oil

    In a large frying pan, heat 2 cups of vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.

  2. 7

    Fry the Chicken Tenders

    Carefully add the breaded chicken tenders to the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

  3. 8

    Drain and Serve

    Using tongs, remove the cooked tenders from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot.
