Remove all fat from chicken breasts and cut into 1 inch by 4 inch strips. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and buttermilk. In a plastic resealable bag mix together the bread crumbs, grated cheese, garlic powder, salt, pepper and dill weed.
Step 3

Dip each chicken strips into buttermilk mixture, then into bread crumb mixture (about 4 strips at a time), and toss to coat well. Place strips in a single layer in a 9x13 inch baking dish and drizzle with melted butter/margarine. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until golden brown, turning once after about 8 minutes of baking time.

Pretty good but the butter on top seemed to make them soggy. I like them crisp so next time I used a butter-flavored cooking spray and they turned out much better. I love dill so that addition gave it a nice twist I thought. Read More

I didn't think these were worth the work. They weren't even that time consuming-I just felt these weren't much better than breaking open a box of Tyson or Banquet chicken strips. Read More

This was a pretty yummy and simple recipe. Turned out moist and tender but a little soggy due to the butter. I used regular milk and a few drops of lemon juice instead of buttermilk. Read More

Wonderful. I dipped first in skim milk (no eggs) and used parsley instead of dill. So good. You definitely have to flip halfway through or else they're soggy. Next time I'll line the pan with aluminum foil. Clean up was a nightmare. Read More

My guests thought these were very good. I used Panko Italian bread crumbs. I also deep fried mine instead of baked them for crispy texture. Read More

OK I screwed up! But they still turned out great. I ended up making chicken strips "Local" style. That is here on the Big Island you don't see chicken breast served that much. It is usually thighs and legs! So when I went to the store to get the chicken I bought boneless thighs instead of breasts! LOL! The spices were right on and the meat was so juicy and tender! served them up with Uncle Bills Sweet and Sour sauce from this site. Great combination. I may even try it with the white meat next time! A Hui Ho!! Read More
