Crispy Chicken Strips – The Ultimate Recipe for Crunchy, Juicy Perfection! (Page 2 ) | April 25, 2025

Healthier Alternatives: Baked & Air-Fried Chicken Strips
If you want to cut back on oil, you can bake or air-fry your chicken strips while keeping them deliciously crispy.

Baked Crispy Chicken Strips
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
Arrange the breaded chicken strips on the sheet.
Spray with cooking oil for extra crispiness.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and cooked through.
Air-Fried Chicken Strips
Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
Arrange chicken strips in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
Spray lightly with oil.
Cook for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway, until crispy and golden brown.
Both methods reduce oil while keeping that satisfying crunch!

Storage & Reheating Tips
How to Store Leftovers:

For longer storage, freeze them for up to 2 months.

Oven: Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes.
