Preparation:
- Prepare the Chicken Strips:
- Cut the chicken breast into strips. Season them with salt and pepper, then lightly coat them with flour.
- Coat the Strips:
- Dip each seasoned chicken strip into the beaten egg, ensuring it’s well coated.
- Roll the egg-coated strip in the crushed roasted cornflakes, pressing gently to ensure the flakes adhere to the chicken.
- Fry the Chicken Strips:
- Heat extra virgin olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat.
- Carefully place the coated chicken strips into the hot oil.
- Fry the strips until they are golden brown and cooked through, flipping them halfway through to ensure even cooking.
- Once cooked, remove the chicken strips from the oil and place them on a plate lined with kitchen or absorbent paper to remove excess oil.
- Serve:
- Serve the crispy chicken strips hot with ketchup for dipping.
- Garnish the dish with sliced pitted black olives for added flavor and presentation.
