Chicken Tenders

These are so crunchy and delicious!!!

Chicken Breasts ( however many you need) 1 tsp garlic powder 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 pepper 1 tsp lawrys seasoning 4 eggs 1 cup panko bread crumbs 1 cup flour

Directions: In three separate bowls, put flour, panko bread crumbs and eggs. Add some garlic powder, salt, pepper and lawrys seasoning to the panko bread crumbs and mix up. Whisk the eggs a little. Cut the chicken breasts into strips. Each breast usually makes three strips. Dredge each chicken strip into the flour first, then the eggs, then the panko bread crumbs and fry them in hot oil ( I use crisco) Make sure its not too hot or they will burn. I had my burner on 6 the whole time and it was perfect. Brown them on each side for about 4 minutes (or until they are brown) and flip over and do the same on the other side. Pull out and drain on paper towel (salt them again just a little) then serve:-)
