These are hands down the best chicken strips I have ever made. The trick of drizzling buttermilk in the flour before dredging the chicken works wonders for the crispiness of the chicken. This has become a regular in our recipe rotation. Thanks for sharing, Ree!

I will NEVER buy another chicken strip! These were so easy and DELICIOUS! My boys loved them…and so did their Daddy and I! Thanks for another wonderful recipe that is not only fantastic, but kid-friendly!

SO easy and SO good! My husband simply said they were “restaurant-quality”, and considering this is what he orders at every restaurant we go to, I was happy to find they are so easy and delicious to make at home!

Yum! I made these for my son and ended up enjoying them every bit as much as he did.

Crispy yumminess!! I didn’t have buttermilk in the fridge so I just added a tablespoon of vinegar to a cup of regular milk and that worked fine.

I used this recipe on skinless breast instead of strips and it was delicious! Will be making it again soon!

These were super easy and really delicious. I obviously feed my kids too much frozen processed chicken b/c they weren’t fans but I’m going to keep making these until they come around to what is good and right in the world!

These are amazing straight out of the pan and they freeze beautifully. They’re better than the stuff you buy in big bags in your grocery store!

These were great! I didn’t have buttermilk and added vinegar to milk as well. The breading didn’t stick as well as I’d like, but hopefully buttermilk would fix that.

I’m surprised no one has reviewed these yet, so I’ll pipe up and say these are amazing and awesome! My kids absolutely love these like nothing else, and even hubby loves them. They are a huge hit in our house!

We had these for dinner tonight. My daughter said they were A-M-A-ZING! and my son said they were good (huge compliment from him….usually I get no more than “it’s alright” from him.) Definitely a keeper!!

We tried these strips a couple times and thought they were very good, but nothing we were excited over. I made a huge batch the other day when my (tall, lanky, still-growing) 18 year old little brother stopped by. Made too many so I tried the recommended flash freezng (from Ree’s PW blog) of a few. Today I made the frozen ones for lunch and we were blown away. Amazing! My hubbie demands I make a big batch and freeze them for future consumption. They are good fresh, but we LOVED them after they’d been frozen. Go figure!

These were good, but I had to cook them 2 1/2-3 minutes per side to get them golden and cooked through. I’m pretty sure my oil was hot enough. It just took longer than I expected. They were worth it, though. Very tasty, and I loved biting into the little crunchy bits of friend buttermilk and flour!

I made these and had trouble keeping the flour mixture on the chicken before frying. I made the buttermilk with vinegar and milk so am wondering if maybe I should have bought regular buttermilk? Or perhaps I added too much or to little to the flour before coating the chicken? Any thoughts? Otherwise, they were tasty, but not enough crunch for me since I couldn’t keep the topping on!

I’ve also had trouble keeping the breading on the chicken while cooking (I used buttermilk). I have made these twice now and each time the breading comes off. It also takes me longer to cook each side before they turn golden brown. My husband thinks that I should dry the strips before coating them. I’m not sure. What am I doing wrong?

I added egg to the buttermilk and had the oil reallly hot…the coating seems to stay on pretty good this way.

I’ve seen comments about freezing these chicken strips. Can you freeze them before frying? Or if they’re frozen after frying, are they reheated in the oven? Should they be thawed before reheating?

These are the best! So easy and delicious. I have made them a few times. They make great leftovers too!
1sarahb on 5.16.2011
Freeze them after frying, reheat in a warm oven.
If the breading is falling off the oil is probably not hot enough.
I make an allergy-friendly version of these for my son using “buttermilk” made of rice milk with a few drops of apple cider vinegar, non-wheat flour, and instead of the seasoning salt I just use salt & pepper. They are really tasty too!
