Ingredients
1½ lb chicken breasts, (roughly 18 ounce), boneless, cut into strips
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup bread crumbs
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp baking powder
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp salt
½ tsp pepper
3 cups cooking oil
2 tbsp ketchup
2 tbsp barbecue sauce
Preparation
Soak the chicken strips in buttermilk and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Prepare 3 bowls. Whisk the egg with a little water in the first bowl.
Place the breadcrumbs and seasonings in the second bowl.
Combine the flour and baking powder in last bowl.
Dredge the chicken in the flour first, then dip it in the eggs and finally coat in the breadcrumbs.
Deep fry at 350 degrees F. Leave in the pan for about 10 minutes, until the skin is golden.
Place on a paper towel to absorb extra oil.
Serve with ketchup or barbecue sauce.
