Print Recipe

This recipe features chicken breast cut into strips, coated in flour, egg, and seasoned breadcrumbs, then fried until golden and crispy. The result is a crunchy exterior with moist, tender chicken inside—classic comfort food at its best.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 pounds chicken breasts, cut into strips

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder

  • 2 teaspoons onion powder

  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

  • 3 large eggs, beaten

  • 2 cups seasoned breadcrumbs (or panko for extra crunch)

  • 1/2 cup milk

  • Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the chicken

Cut chicken breasts into long, even strips. Pat dry with paper towels.

Step 2: Set up the breading station

Place flour mixed with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in one bowl. In another, whisk eggs with milk. In a third bowl, add seasoned breadcrumbs.

Step 3: Coat the chicken

Dredge each chicken strip in flour, dip into egg mixture, then press into breadcrumbs until evenly coated.

Step 4: Heat the oil

Pour vegetable oil into a large skillet or deep pan, about 1 inch deep. Heat to 350°F (175°C).

Step 5: Fry until golden

Fry chicken strips in batches for 4–5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Step 6: Serve hot

Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauces.
