Ingredients
Scale
- 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups panko breadcrumbs
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 medium Russet potatoes (about 2 lbs)
- Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- Prepare your kitchen by gathering all ingredients and tools. Wash and peel the potatoes, then cut them into fry shapes.
- Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with seasoned flour (salt and pepper), another with beaten eggs, and the last with panko mixed with garlic powder.
- Cut chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. Dredge each piece first in flour, then dip it in egg, and finally coat it in panko breadcrumbs.
- Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry nuggets in batches until golden brown (about 3-4 minutes per side). Drain on paper towels.
- While frying nuggets, cook potato strips in hot oil until golden brown (around 5-7 minutes). Drain excess oil.
