Description

These easy spicy chicken strips are coated in a Creole seasoning-based blend before they're fried for tons of flavor.

Ingredients

1/4 cup milk
1 large egg
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
1 tablespoon Creole seasoning
1 pinch ground black pepper
2 (5 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breasts, sliced into strips
1/2 cup oil for frying, or as needed

Directions

1 Mix milk and egg together in a medium bowl. Mix flour, bread crumbs, Creole seasoning, and pepper together in a second bowl until well combined.
2 Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
3 Dip chicken strips into egg wash, and then roll through flour mixture until fully coated.
4 Fry the chicken strips in the hot oil until golden brown, no longer pink in the centers, and juices run clear, 10 to 12 minutes per side.
