How to Make Beer Battered Chicken Strips

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the beer and egg.
  3. Cut chicken breasts into 1-inch strips.
  4. Dip each chicken strip into the beer mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
  5. Then, dredge the chicken strip in the flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure it adheres.
  6. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. The oil is ready when a small piece of batter sizzles immediately.
  7. Carefully place the chicken strips in the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Remove the chicken strips from the skillet and place them on a wire rack to drain excess oil.
  9. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
