Ingredients
- 2 ½ lb chicken breast, cut lengthwise into ½-inch strips
- 4 C whole buttermilk
- 7 C all-purpose flour
- 2 Tbsp lemon pepper
- 1 ½ Tbsp cayenne pepper
- 4 Tbsp Cajun seasoning
- 2 Tbsp salt
- 2 Tbsp pepper
- Canola or vegetable oil for deep frying
Directions
Add chicken strips and buttermilk to large bowl. Mix and let marinate for 30 minutes. When ready, add oil to deep skillet or fryer and heat to 350°. While oil heats, add dry ingredients to separate bowl and mix well. When oil is hot, toss chicken strips in flour mixture one by one, making sure to completely coat each strip. Carefully add battered chicken strips to fryer, working in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook until chicken is golden brown and at least 165°, about 7–8 minutes. Let cool for five minutes before serving.
