Ingredients

  • 1 pound chicken breast (boneless and skinless)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 2 cups breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
  • Vegetable oil (for frying)

Directions

  1. Cut the chicken breast into thin strips.
  2. In a shallow bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  3. In another shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk.
  4. In a third shallow bowl, mix the breadcrumbs, dried oregano, dried thyme, and cayenne pepper (optional).
  5. Dip each chicken strip into the flour mixture, coating it evenly. Shake off any excess flour.
  6. Dip the flour-coated chicken strip into the egg mixture, making sure it is well coated.
  7. Finally, coat the chicken strip with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing lightly to adhere the breadcrumbs.
  8. Place the coated chicken strips on a baking sheet and refrigerate for 10 minutes to help set the coating.
  9. Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large skillet over medium-high heat.
  10. Fry the chicken strips in batches for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  11. Transfer the cooked chicken strips to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
