Method

Chicken Tenders

  1. 1

    Prepare Chicken

    Cut the chicken breasts into strips.

  2. 2

    Set up Breading Station

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

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dip each chicken strip first into the flour, shaking off any excess, then into the egg, and finally into the bread crumbs. Make sure each strip is evenly coated.

  4. 4

    Fry the Chicken

    Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken strips in batches, cooking for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.

Fries

  1. 5

    Prepare Potatoes

    Wash and peel the potatoes, then cut them into thin strips.

  2. 6

    Soak Potatoes

    Soak the cut potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

  3. 7

    Dry and Fry Potatoes

    Drain and pat the potatoes dry with paper towels. In a deep fryer or large pot, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Fry the potatoes in batches for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown.

  4. 8

    Season Fries

    Remove fries from the oil and drain on paper towels. Season immediately with salt, black pepper, and paprika.
