Chicken strips

I don’t shallow or deep fry very often. However, I did make an exception with these chicken strips as they are shallow fried. And they are sensational, so will be making these a regular ‘sometimes food’!

Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breast fillets

  • ⅓ cup plain flour

    gluten free, see notes below

  • 1 clove garlic

    crushed

  • salt

    to taste

  • pepper

    to taste

  • 2 eggs

    lightly beaten

  • 2 cups fresh bread crumbs

  • 1 cup oil

Equipment

  • 1 deep frypan
  • 1 bowl

Instructions

  1. Cut chicken into strips approximately 1cm diameter and 10cm long.
  2. Toss chicken strips in flour, shake off excess.
  3. In a bowl whisk eggs, add garlic, salt and pepper.
  4. Cover chicken strips in egg mixture then roll in breadcrumbs.
  5. Heat oil in a deep frypan and fry the chicken strips in two batches until golden brown.

Notes

Tip
To make these gluten-free, I used 4 slices of gluten-free bread to make the breadcrumbs and gluten-free plain flour.
