Outback Chicken Fingers Recipe
Ingredients:
For the Chicken:
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cut into strips)
- 1 cup buttermilk (for marinating)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
For the Breading:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cornstarch (for extra crispiness)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
For Frying:
- Vegetable oil (enough for deep frying or shallow pan frying)
Instructions:
- Marinate the Chicken:
- In a bowl, combine the chicken strips, buttermilk, salt, and pepper. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or overnight for extra tenderness).
- Prepare Breading Mix:
- In another bowl, mix the flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Coat the Chicken:
- Remove chicken from buttermilk and dredge each strip in the seasoned flour mixture. Press firmly so the coating sticks well.
- Heat the Oil:
- Heat oil in a deep fryer or large skillet to 350°F (175°C).
- Fry the Chicken:
- Fry chicken strips in batches for 4–5 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through. Internal temp should reach 165°F (74°C).
- Drain & Serve:
- Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Serve hot with honey mustard, ranch, or ketchup.
Optional Dipping Sauce – Honey Mustard:
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp yellow mustard
- 1 tbsp honey
- Mix well and chill before serving.
Tips:
- For the oven-baked version, Bake at 425°F for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- For the air fryer: Cook at 400°F for 10–12 minutes, flipping the food once.
