This isn't so much a recipe as a building block for other recipes that call for a little chicken, such as pasta, rice, or a salad. Rather than simply pan-frying or baking the chicken, I recommend a little flour mix on the outside. It makes the chicken so tender on the inside! Then use your chicken however you see fit. I like to incorporate an additional 1/4 tsp of a spice that compliments my dish, such as five spice when I use the chicken in a Chinese meal.
Ingredients
- 1/4 lb chicken breast meat (e.g. tenders)
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp spice (e.g. cajun mix, five spice)
- 2 tbsp canola oil
Directions
Remove any tendons in the chicken. Cut into strips and set aside.
Mix the flour, salt, and spices. Dredge chicken in the flour mixture.
Heat oil in a large saucepan. Add the chicken and cook until the bottom is brown. Flip and brown the other side.
Remove from heat. Wait a couple minutes before slicing.
