CRISPY CHICKEN STRIPS

Ingredients:

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cut into strips)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp paprika (optional for extra flavor)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp milk (or buttermilk for extra crispy)
  • 1 ½ cups breadcrumbs (preferably panko for extra crunch)
  • Vegetable oil (for frying)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into strips, about 1-inch wide. Pat them dry with paper towels.
  2. Set up the breading station:
    • In one shallow bowl, mix together the flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
    • In a second bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk.
    • In a third bowl, place the breadcrumbs.
  3. Coat the Chicken:
    • Dredge each chicken strip in the flour mixture, making sure to coat it fully.
    • Dip it into the egg mixture, then roll it in the breadcrumbs, pressing gently to ensure the breadcrumbs stick.
  4. Fry the Chicken:
    • Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. The oil should be around 350°F (175°C).
    • Carefully add the chicken strips, being sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
    • Use tongs to flip them to avoid splashing hot oil.
  5. Drain and Serve: Once cooked, place the chicken strips on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
  6. Serve with dipping sauces: Enjoy with your favorite sauces like ranch, honey mustard, or barbecue sauce!
