Ingredients | Lemon Pesto Chicken Tenders

1 egg

½ cup milk

½ cup finely chopped walnuts

¾ cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon dried tarragon

salt, to taste

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into thin strips

¼ cup unsalted butter

½ cup vegetable oil

Directions

Beat the egg together with the milk in a shallow bowl. Combine the walnuts, flour, tarragon, and salt in a second shallow bowl. Dip the chicken strips first into the egg mixture, then into the flour mixture, coating evenly, and place on a plate.

Melt the butter with the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the chicken in small batches in the butter mixture until the coating is browned and crispy, about 5 minutes. Test one to be sure it is cooked through. Chicken should be no longer pink and juices run clear. Drain on paper towels.
