Ingredients

How to make halal garlic butter chicken strips

Get the strips ready:

Dry the chicken strips using a kitchen towel. This will give a crispy texture to your homemade chicken strips. Once done, mix all-purpose flour, garlic powder, black pepper, and paprika in a large bowl. Now, coat the dried chicken strips in this mixture. I just love these strips more if they are coated nicely! It will also add to the crispiness.

Fry the strips:

Take a frying pan (I’d suggest a nonstick frying pan so that the chicken strips don’t stick to it) and heat a bit of olive oil over medium heat. When the oil becomes hot, gently add the coated chicken strips. Let each side of the chicken strip fry for five to six minutes. When each side turns golden brown, flip it to fry the other side (for the same duration). You don’t have to add all the chicken strips together in the skillet. For a perfectly crispy garlic butter chicken strips recipe, fry the chicken strips in batches. After frying, transfer the chicken strips to a plate (you can cover the plate with a kitchen paper towel beforehand).

Make the garlic butter glaze:

Now for the magic! Take a small saucepan and turn the stove on. The heat should be low. Add the halal butter and melt it. The melted butter will now turn into a golden liquid. Add the chopped garlic and cook it for a minute or two. You need to stir the garlic butter mixture for a while so that it doesn’t get overcooked or burnt. Next, you can remove it from the heat. Now, keep it there till it cools a bit. Mix lemon juice and parsley to give some flavor to this garlic butter glaze recipe.

Pour the garlic butter sauce onto the chicken strips:

Plate your halal garlic butter chicken strips, garnish with extra parsley, and serve them hot. They make for a delicious weeknight dinner, family dinner, or even as a party food for guests. Serve with dipping sauces if you like—I personally love a side of garlic aioli!

My tip for making halal garlic butter chicken strips yummier

It’s easy to get restaurant-like crispiness while cooking homemade garlic butter chicken strips. The trick is to ensure that the oil is hot enough before you dip the strips into it. Don’t flip each side immediately. Give it at least four minutes (over medium heat) so that it remains undisturbed.
