Steps

1. 1

   Pat the chicken strips dry and place them in a mixing bowl.

2. 2

   Add the chicken seasoning: salt to taste, black pepper, salt, onion powder, smoked paprika powder, and garlic powder. Drizzle in the oil and mix well so the strips are evenly coated.

3. 3

   Cover the seasoned chicken and marinate it in the refrigerator for about 1 hour.

4. 4

   Prepare the dry batter by combining the all-purpose flour, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika powder, and black pepper in a bowl. Mix thoroughly.

5. 5

   Prepare the egg wash by cracking the eggs into a bowl, adding the water, and whisking until combined.

6. 6

   In a separate tray, combine the panko breadcrumbs and dried parsley.

7. 7

   Coat each chicken strip in the dry batter, then dip it in the egg mixture. Repeat the dry-batter and egg coating, then finish by coating the strip in the parsley breadcrumbs.

8. 8

   Lay the coated chicken strips flat on a sheet and repeat until all the strips are coated.

9. 9

   Make the dipping sauce by mixing the mayonnaise, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika powder until combined.

10. 10

    Heat frying oil to 350°F (175°C). The source does not specify the amount of frying oil or the equipment to use.

11. 11

    Carefully drop the coated chicken strips into the hot oil. Cook for 2–3 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

12. 12

    Serve the crispy chicken fries with the chicken dipping sauce.

Notes

The source lists both salt to taste and 1 teaspoon salt for the chicken. It also mentions garlic powder in the chicken seasoning without specifying an amount. Frying oil quantity is not provided. Handle raw chicken safely and avoid overcrowding the frying vessel so the oil temperature remains stable.
