The Colonel used to sell chicken nuggets that were tasty but he thought 'Why not prepare fresh chicken strips of all white meat?' and that is how the Colonel's Crispy Strips were born. You will notice it is the same as the Extra Crispy.

I made this recipe for mine and SO's Dinner on 9/18/09. Since there was just the two of us this is how it was made,I used 3 chicken breast halves cut into strips. For the marinade Finger-Licking Chicken Marinade was used. Then 1 egg, 3/4 cup of milk was used for the wash. For the coating, 1 1/4 cup of flour was used with the full amount of seasonings ( Since I have a bad reaction to MSG it was left out ).Other than the changes that I made, the recipe was made as it was written. If this is made again, I won't "double dip " since alot of the coating fell off while I was frying it. I don't know if leaving out the MSG affected the taste, but to us this tasted nothing like KFC chicken strips. But it was very good as it was. Thanks for posting and, " Keep Smiling "

    This really does tast like KFC original recipe! I didn't marinate because I already started the recipe before I saw that step. I only used 4 large chicken breast, and that was enough to use all the breading. Very tasty! Thanks!

    Five thumbs up...all around this kitchen table,when I asked the kids what they thought of these!!I didn't marinade the chicken as I didn't have time.I used a fork in which to spear the strips and to transfer them back and forth between the egg/milk mixture and the flour mixture.When I had completed the dipping process,I then just pushed the strip off the fork onto waxed paper in which I let them sit for 20 minutes before frying them.The sitting of the strips helps the dough to set in which to ensure a crispier coating.Thanks for a great recipe!!Will definately make again!

    Thank you for a great, authentic and EASY recipe. I made it for the hubby and he really enjoyed it. What I liked most was that the coating stays crisp for quite a while. I did not use it on strips, but on drumsticks and thighs and it came out beautiful. I also used it on my veggies - and it was fine.
