ingredients
1 large egg
3/4 cup beer
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 dash black pepper
1 1/4 cup vegetable oil
3 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
directions
Add the egg to a mixing bowl. Whisk until a uniform color. Add the beer and whisk until smooth. Add the flour, baking soda, salt, and black pepper and mix well. Cover the bowl and let stand at room temperature for 20-25 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat the oil to 360 degrees F in a skillet over medium-high heat. Alternately, you can use a deep fryer.
Slice the chicken into strips.
Dip each chicken strip into the beer batter, letting any excess drip off. Add to the hot oil, in batches as needed, and cook for 4-6 minutes, turning the strips as needed until they are golden brown. Remove from the oil with a slotted spoon or tongs and place on paper toweling to drain.
Serve the beer-battered chicken strips hot with barbecue sauce or sweet and sour sauce, for dipping.

Very nice recipe. Next time, I might put some garlic powder in the batter but, otherwise, it was very pleasant. Clings very well to the chicken, which is something I sometimes have an issue with--not this time! Thank you for sharing!
