CRISPY CHICKEN STRIPS

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 pounds raw chicken breast tenders
1/4 to 1/2 cup buttermilk
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 to 3 teaspoons seasoned salt, such as Lawry's Seasoned Salt, or spices of your choosing
Vegetable oil
Dipping sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • Submerge the chicken strips in the buttermilk for 15 to 20 minutes (or longer if you'd like).
  • In another bowl, combine the flour and seasoning salt (or other seasonings if you prefer). Mix this together well. Next, gradually drizzle 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the buttermilk into the flour mixture and stir lightly with a fork as you add it to achieve clumps.
  • Heat about 1 inch vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-low to medium heat.
  • Remove a few of the buttermilk-soaked chicken strips and place them in the flour mixture, turning them over to coat thoroughly. Place them on a plate. Continue coating the chicken strips until they are all ready to cook.
  • When the oil is sufficiently heated, begin cooking the strips a few at a time. Cook them for about a minute and a half or so on each side. When golden and crispy and the chicken is done, remove them to a paper-towel-lined plate. Do not allow them to burn.
  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce. Yum!

Tips:

  • Use a variety of seasonings: Experiment with different herbs and spices to create a unique and flavorful chicken strip. Some popular options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, chili powder, and cumin.
  • Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a flavorful liquid, such as buttermilk, olive oil, or yogurt, will help to tenderize and flavor the meat.
  • Use a light coating: When breading the chicken strips, use a light coating of flour, eggs, and bread crumbs. This will help to prevent the breading from becoming too thick and heavy.
  • Cook the chicken strips at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy outer coating and a juicy interior.
  • Serve the chicken strips with your favorite dipping sauce: Some popular options include ranch dressing, honey mustard, or barbecue sauce.

Conclusion:

Seasoned chicken strips are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. With a variety of seasonings and breading options to choose from, you can create a chicken strip that is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty meal, give seasoned chicken strips a try!
