Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 2 chicken fillets
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons mixed spices (such as paprika, cumin, oregano, or your favorite blend)
- 2 tablespoons corn starch
- 1 tablespoon salt
- Oil (for frying or grilling)
- Salad greens, cherry tomatoes (for garnish)
Instructions
- Separate the Eggs: Separate the egg yolks from the whites and place them in two different bowls.
- Prepare the Chicken: Cut the chicken fillets into strips. In the bowl with egg yolks, add the minced garlic, spices, salt, and corn starch. Mix well until the chicken is evenly coated.
- Marinate: Let the chicken rest in the mixture for at least 30 minutes. This enhances the flavor and makes the meat tender.
- Heat the Oil: Pour oil into a frying pan and heat over medium-high heat.
- Coat and Cook: Beat the egg whites until slightly frothy. Dip each marinated chicken strip into the egg whites, then place in the hot pan.
- Grill or Fry: Cook each strip for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and fully cooked. Avoid overcrowding the pan to maintain crispiness.
- Serve: Arrange the chicken strips on a plate with lettuce and cherry tomatoes for garnish. Serve immediately for the best texture.
