Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Chicken breasts
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 1 cup Crushed cornflakes
- 1 cup Vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Cut the chicken breasts into thin strips, about 1 inch wide.
In a shallow bowl, mix the flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
In a second bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together until well combined.
In a third bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs and crushed cornflakes.
Dredge each chicken strip in the flour mixture, then dip it into the egg mixture, and finally coat it in the breadcrumb mixture. Press gently to ensure the coating adheres.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Fry the chicken strips in batches, cooking each side for about 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
To prepare the honey mustard sauce, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, honey, and lemon juice in a small bowl until smooth.
Serve the crispy chicken fingers warm with the honey mustard sauce on the side for dipping.
