Oven Chicken Strips & Fries

Chicken strips and fries simple easy childhood throwback. We all honestly love to eat with our fingers, and dip thing in stuff. Admit it. It’s ok, you are alone. Double dip, go ahead.

Start by peeling a medium potato.
Cut the potato into fries. I like them fairly fine for this.
Put the fries into a container and cover with water, and about two teaspoons of salt. Preheat oven to 375
Meanwhile whir up some bread slices in a blender. I use up the ends for this, or the trimmings from the sausage rolls.
Put 1/2 tsp butter into a warm pan.
Once the butter melts stir in the bread crumbs. Toss the lightly coat with butter.
Add in a bit of parmesan and some Italian seasoning
Toast to golden brown. Store excess in airtight container.
Remove the fries from the soaking water. Dry thoroughly. Look at the starch in the water.
When fries are completely dry, toss with a bit of oil and some seasoned salt and pepper.
Prep the chicken tenders. For this I like them fairly thin, and they will cook quickly. So I did three long strips per loin.
Start the fries on a baking sheet in the preheated 375 oven.
Coat the chicken strips lightly with mayonnaise. Yes mayo.
Coat the chicken strips with seasoned crumbs and lay on a wire rack to set up.
Place the rack on the sheet tray with the fries. The rack will help the heat circulate all around the strips and crisp them up.
Finger food needs a good dipping sauce. I had gochujang so I make gochujang mayo, you could also make a sriracha mayo, a basic ranch, garlic mayo or pretty much mayo anything.
Some steamed green beans – you can dip those too if you want!

I have always cooked, I was that person who could make a meal from an empty fridge. I have lived alone and with large and small families, I have cooked for camps on wood stoves, and in professional kitchens. I have lived and worked all over the west from Montana, to Seattle to Arizona to San Diego. I have traveled, maybe not 'all over the world', yet, and have collected tastes recipes and techniques everywhere, and every one I meet.
