Juicy chicken strips coated in seasoned flour and fried until golden brown and crispy. Perfect for dipping in ketchup, ranch, or your favorite sauce.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb (450 g) boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips 🍗
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour 🌾
  • 2 tsp garlic powder 🧄
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp paprika 🌶️
  • ½ tsp salt 🧂
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 2 large eggs 🥚
  • 2 tbsp milk 🥛
  • Oil for frying (vegetable or canola)

Instructions

  1. Prepare chicken: Cut chicken breasts into even strips and pat dry with paper towels.
  2. Seasoned flour: In a shallow bowl, mix flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Egg wash: In another bowl, beat eggs with milk until smooth.
  4. Coat strips: Dredge chicken in flour, dip in egg wash, then back into flour for a double coating.
  5. Fry: Heat oil to 350°F (175°C). Fry strips in batches for 5–6 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Ensure internal temp reaches 165°F (74°C).
  6. Drain & serve: Place on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with ketchup, ranch, or dipping sauce.

Notes & Tips

Extra crunchy: Double dip in flour for an even crispier crust.
Baked version: Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 18–20 minutes, flipping halfway, for a lighter option.
Flavor boost: Add cayenne pepper or chili powder to the flour for a spicy kick.
