  • 1 tbsp sweet chilli sauce

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, combine chicken strips with paprika, salt, white pepper, garlic powder, and vinegar.

  • In a third bowl, mix panko crumbs, grated parmesan, and oregano.
  • Dredge each marinated chicken strip lightly in flour, shaking off excess.
  • Dip into the whisked egg, ensuring full coverage.
