Chicken Tenders

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast fillets into tenders, about 1 inch wide.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Stations

    In one bowl, place the flour. In a second bowl, whisk the eggs. In a third bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Coat the Chicken

    Dredge each chicken tender in flour, shaking off any excess, then dip into the egg mixture, and finally coat with the breadcrumb mixture.

  2. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  3. 5

    Fry the Tenders

    Carefully place the breaded chicken tenders in the hot oil, cooking in batches if necessary. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.

  4. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the chicken tenders from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot.
