Crispy Chicken Strips

Ingredients:

• Chicken breast
• Roasted cornflakes
• Flour
• Beaten egg
• Salt
• Black pepper
• Extra virgin olive oil
• Ketchup (for dipping)
• Pitted black olives (for garnish)

Preparation:

1. Prepare the Chicken:
   Begin by cutting the chicken breast into strips. Season the strips generously with salt and black pepper, then lightly coat them with flour.
2. Coating:
   Dip each chicken strip into the beaten egg, ensuring they are fully covered. Then, roll the strips in the crushed roasted cornflakes. To crush the cornflakes, simply use your hands to break them into smaller pieces—this adds the perfect crunch!
3. Fry to Perfection:
   Heat extra virgin olive oil in a frying pan until it’s very hot. Fry the chicken strips in batches, turning them occasionally until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides.
4. Drain and Serve:
   Remove the chicken strips from the oil and place them on kitchen paper or absorbent paper to drain any excess oil. Let them rest for a few minutes.
5. Serve:
   Serve the crispy chicken strips with a side of ketchup for dipping and garnish with pitted black olives.

Enjoy these crispy delights as a snack, appetizer, or even a light meal!
