CRISPY CHICKEN STRIPS

Instructions:

Prepare the chicken: Cut the chicken into strips or nugget-sized pieces. Season the chicken strips with salt, pepper, and paprika if desired.
Set up a breading station: In three separate shallow bowls, place the flour in one, whisk the eggs in another, and put the breadcrumbs in the third bowl.

Bread the chicken strips: Dredge each chicken strip in the flour, making sure it’s coated evenly. Then, dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, coat the strip in breadcrumbs, pressing the breadcrumbs onto the chicken to ensure they adhere well. Repeat this process for all the chicken strips.
Heat the oil: In a deep frying pan or a deep fryer, heat about 2-3 inches of cooking oil to around 350-375°F (175-190°C). Use a thermometer to ensure the oil is at the right temperature.
