Chicken Strips

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breasts into strips approximately 1 inch wide.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    Place flour in one shallow dish, whisk the eggs in a second shallow dish, and mix breadcrumbs with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika in a third shallow dish.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dredge each chicken strip in flour, dip into the egg, and then coat with the breadcrumb mixture. Ensure each strip is evenly coated.

  4. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a large skillet or frying pan, heat oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  5. 5

    Fry the Chicken Strips

    Carefully add the breaded chicken strips to the hot oil in batches. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to ensure they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the chicken strips from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain. Serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce.
