Crunchy Chicken Strips
It’s that time again when tailgating parties and get together with friends happen quite often. What’s better than serving some delicious crunchy chicken strips at your next tailgate party, or taking some to your next get together?
Boneless skinless chicken breast cut into strips are definitely my “go to” recipe when I’m planning a tailgating party, or a get together with friends and family. These chicken strips are crispy, crunchy and juicy! The coating is what makes them so tasty! I truly believe it’s all in the coating, and how they are prepared, that makes them so good!
It all starts with the chicken! A big fat juicy chicken breast makes for some delicious homemade chicken strips. I love chicken! Just cut up a few breasts into long strips, then coat with flour, dip them in an egg wash, and then dip them in flour mixed with crushed pop crisp chips that are barbeque flavor (the pop crisp chips really make for a great coating on these strips. If you cannot find them in your potato chip aisle at the grocery store, you can always use regular chips). Fry em’ up and you have yourself a great appetizer!
