Ingredients
1 | pound chicken tenders |
|---|---|
2 | eggs |
2 | tablespoons good dijon mustard |
1⁄3 | bunch parsley |
1 | tablespoon paprika |
2 -3 | cups panko (Japanese bread crumbs) |
1⁄2 | cup flour |
1⁄2 | teaspoon salt |
| • | pepper |
| • | olive oil |
Instructions
| 1. | Begin with clean cut chicken tenders, or, if starting with a whole breast, cut the breast into halves, butterfly each half in the middle and separate into two pieces. Aim for tenders about 1/2 inch thick, but they can be thinned slightly by pounding. |
|---|---|
| 2. | Blend the eggs, flour, yogurt, paprika, salt, and pepper thoroughly in a dish. |
| 3. | Next, prep the chicken tenders by immersing them completely in the egg mixture. |
| 4. | Heat olive oil or ghee in a wide pan over medium-high heat. |
| 5. | Transfer the chicken into the pan and fry for about 7 minutes on each side until golden brown. Avoid overcooking to prevent dryness. |
| 6. | Drain any excess oil by resting the cooked chicken tenders on paper towels for a few minutes. Be mindful that they do not darken too quickly - if so, decrease the heat slightly, but don't cool the oil too much. |
