Fast and easy fried chicken strips with a little twist! Marinate chicken in a tasty lime and soy sauce-based marinade with plenty of garlic, then flour up and fry! Be traditional and serve with brown beans and rice, or dish up a fine fried potato product. Prep time includes marinating.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup fresh lime juice (about 2 medium limes)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/4 lbs boneless chicken breasts, strips
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
3/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
vegetable oil, about 1 to 1/2 cups (for frying)
Directions:
1. Combine marinade ingredients in a plastic zipper bag.
2. Add chicken strips and marinate in refrigerator for at least 3 hours.
3. Combine flour, paprika, pepper and salt in another zipper bag.
4. Transfer chicken strips to flour mixture, coating evenly.
5. Heat oil over medium-high heat and fry chicken in batches of 4 strips (don't overcrowd; oil will cool down too much during cooking), taking about 4 minutes per side to brown outside and thoroughly cook insides.
6. When done, transfer chicken strips to a plate lined with paper towels, and lightly sprinkle with salt.
7. Cook remaining batches of strips, keeping others warm in a low-temp oven.
