Pickle Chicken Strips

Adapted from https://theskinnyishdish.com/skillet-pickle-chicken/

• Dill pickle juice + enough water to cover the chicken
• 5 chicken breast cut into strips
• 10 tbsp white flour
• 1/2 tsp pepper
• 2 tsp kosher salt divided
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp onion powder
• 1/2 tsp oregano
• 3 TBS vegetable oil divided

Brine the chicken in pickle juice and water for 8-10 hours.

Mix flour and spices (with only 1 tsp of salt) in a bowl and set aside.

Place chicken in a bag with 1 tsp salt and 1 tsp veggie oil. Rub the oil and salt into the chicken. Add the flour mixture to the bag and toss until coated.

Heat about 2 tsp of veggie oil at a time (this will take a few rounds, since you need to give the chicken space to cook) in a med. heat cast iron pan, and cook chicken for about 4 mins per side or until cooked through. Rest the chicken for a few minutes before serving.
