Juicy Fried Chicken Strips

Method

1. 01

   Step 1

   First, prepare a chicken breast and remove the fascia around the edges.

   

2. 02

   Step 2

   Cut the meat into strips about one finger wide.

   

3. 03

   Step 3

   Slice scallions, ginger, and garlic.

   

4. 04

   Step 4

   Marinate the chicken strips with seasonings such as pepper, oyster sauce, scallions, ginger, and garlic for a while.

   

5. 05

   Step 5

   Toss it a little longer to let the flavors penetrate; marinate for an hour.

   

6. 06

   Step 6

   Because the salt used in marinating meat products can easily draw out the moisture from the meat, making it tough and dry, adding a little chicken broth or other meat broth (or water if you don't have any) helps maintain the meat's moisture, resulting in tender meat after frying.

   Step 7

    Heat oil in a pan until it reaches 50% of its maximum temperature, then add chicken strips.

    

13. 13

    Step 13

    Fry over medium heat until cooked through. Since the chicken strips are too small, they don't need to be fried again.

    One chicken breast made a whole plate of fried chicken strips!

    Real chicken is much better than store-bought minced meat mixed with flour.

    Step 16

    For the first meal, you can eat it directly with tomato sauce. For the second meal, you can stir-fry a sauce like Korean fried chicken and eat it wrapped in it.
