Ingredients:

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 2 large breasts)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs (panko for extra crunch)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Cooking spray or vegetable oil for frying

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Chicken

  1. Start by cutting the chicken breasts into strips, about 1 inch wide. You can also pound the chicken slightly to ensure even cooking.
  2. In a shallow bowl, season the flour with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.

Step 2: Set Up the Breading Station

  1. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until well mixed.
  2. In another shallow bowl, place the breadcrumbs.

Step 3: Bread the Chicken Strips

  1. Take each chicken strip and first coat it in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess.
  2. Next, dip the floured chicken into the beaten eggs, ensuring it’s fully coated.
  3. Finally, roll the chicken in the breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere the crumbs to the chicken. Repeat this process for all the chicken strips.

Step 4: Preheat the Air Fryer or Oven

  1. If using an air fryer, preheat it to 400°F (200°C). If using an oven, preheat it to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
