Servings: persons

500 g skinless chicken breasts
vegetable oil (for deep frying)
MARINADE
4 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon msg
COATING
1 egg, beaten
1 cup milk
2 cups plain flour
3 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon Mexican chili powder
1 teaspoon msg (isn't really important it just adds extra flavour)

1
Trim any excess skin or fat from the chicken breasts.
2
Slice the chicken breasts into nice size strips (approximately 1/2 inch x 3-4 inches).
3
Combine the water, salt and MSG for the marinade in a large bowl and let it sit and marinate for 20 minutes.
4
Turn the strips once while they are marinating.
5
Combine the beaten egg and milk and a bit of pepper in a medium size bowl.
6
In a small plastic bag combine the remaining ingredients (flour, salt, pepper, paprika, Mexican chili and MSG) and shake.
7
At this time you can start to preheat the oil in a deep-fryer to 220u00b0C.
8
When the chicken has been marinating for 20 minutes, transfer each piece to paper towels so that excess liquid can drain off.
9
Using about ten strips at once, place the chicken in the bag with the flouer and shake the bag until the strips of chicken are coated.
10
Place them on a plate.
11
Once they have been coated with the flour mixture dip them in the egg and milk mixture individually and them back into the bag for another shake.
12
Be sure to try and get as much coating on each strip.
13
If you wish you can coat them again if you want a thicker coating.
14
Drop the strips, 5-6 at a time into the hot oil.
15
They should only take a couple of minutes depending on how you like your chicken.
16
Be sure to stir when frying so the strips don't stick together.
17
Remove the chicken from the oil and allow them to drain on paper towels for a couple of minutes.
18
Enjoy your homemade takeaway!

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
