Chicken Strips

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate Chicken

    Cut chicken breasts into strips and place them in a bowl. Pour buttermilk over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight for best results.

  2. 2

    Prepare Breading

    In a separate bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  3. 3

    Bread Chicken

    Remove chicken from the buttermilk and let excess drip off. Dredge each strip in the flour mixture, making sure they are fully coated. Shake off excess flour.

  4. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a deep skillet or fryer, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  5. 5

    Fry Chicken Strips

    Carefully add breaded chicken strips to the hot oil in batches. Fry for 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through, turning occasionally for even cooking.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the chicken strips from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with house-made ranch and your choice of sauce.
