How to cook deliciously - Crispy Buttermilk Chicken Strips

1 . Stage

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).

2 . Stage

Slice each chicken breast into thick strips.

3 . Stage

Whisk flour, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and cayenne together and pour into a gallon-sized resealable plastic bag. Pour buttermilk into a shallow dish.

4 . Stage

Fill a heavy-bottomed pan at least 4 inches deep with oil and heat it to 350 degrees (175 degrees C).

5 . Stage

Place several chicken strips in the plastic bag. Seal the bag and shake a couple of times until strips are coated. Repeat to coat remaining strips. Dip each strip into buttermilk, then back into the flour mixture.
