Instructions

  1. Step 1: Cut 1 pound chicken breasts into 1-inch strips, then dredge each piece in 1/2 cup all-purpose flour mixed with 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp paprika, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
  2. Step 2: Dip each floured chicken strip into 2 large beaten eggs, then coat completely in 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs.
  3. Step 3: Heat 1/4 cup melted butter in a skillet over medium-high heat, add chicken strips, and cook 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
  4. Step 4: For dino eggs: Halve 4 hard-boiled eggs, mix 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1 tbsp Dijon mustard, 1 tsp lemon juice, 1/4 cup chopped celery, and 1/4 cup chopped red bell pepper. Spoon mixture into the egg halves to create 'dino egg' centers.
