Instructions

  1. Add chicken strips to a bowl of buttermilk. Let sit in buttermilk for about 20 minutes.
  2. Heat oil on medium-high heat in a pan (about 350°F).
  3. While oil is heating, mix flour, garlic salt, a dash of pepper, and baking powder in another bowl.
  4. Add beaten eggs to a third bowl.
  5. Take chicken strips out of the buttermilk bowl and then place into the flour mixture, then into the egg mix, and then back into the flour mix.
  6. Fry chicken pieces in oil for 7-9 minutes on each side (or until golden brown). The internal temperature of the chicken should be 165°F.
  7. Place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  8. Serve warm with dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Prep ahead.
  • Store leftovers for 3-4 days in an airtight container in the fridge, or freeze for 3-4 months. Reheat in the microwave, toaster oven, or regular oven. They are also great to slice and use in salads or wraps.
  • Fridge. Coat the chicken, place the on a plate, cover it with plastic, and store it in the fridge for up to 1 day.
  • Freezer. Place the coated chicken on a baking sheet and into the freezer. Once the strips are solid, transfer them to a freezer Ziploc and store them in the freezer for up to 3 months. Allow them to thaw before you fry them in oil.
