Chicken Tenders

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into strips about 1 inch wide. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

  2. 2

    Set up the Dredging Station

    In one bowl, place the flour. In a second bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, place the breadcrumbs.

  3. 3

    Coat the Chicken

    Dredge each chicken strip in flour, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs. Place on a plate.

  4. 4

    Fry the Chicken

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

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove chicken tenders from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with marinara sauce on the side for dipping.
