How to Make Diane's Pheasant Fingers

  1. Whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in a medium bowl.
  2. In a shallow dish, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1/4 cup milk.
  3. Heat 1/2 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat (approximately 350°F/175°C).
  4. Cut 2 pheasant breasts into 3 x 3/4 inch strips.
  5. Dip each pheasant strip into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated, then dredge in the flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
  6. Carefully place pheasant strips in the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for approximately 3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Remove pheasant fingers from the skillet and place them on a wire rack or paper towels to drain excess oil.
