Slice the chicken breasts into even strips, about 1-inch wide.
In a shallow dish, combine the flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
In a second shallow dish, beat the eggs.
In a third shallow dish, mix the panko breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese.
Dredge each chicken strip in the seasoned flour, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat in the breadcrumb mixture. Press gently to help the breadcrumbs adhere.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the chicken strips in a single layer, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
Transfer the cooked chicken strips to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces, such as ranch, honey mustard, barbecue, or marinara.
