PRESENTATION

Fried chicken straccetti with yogurt is, I gotta say, a real game-changer if you're tired of the same old chicken routine. You cut chicken breast into thin strips and swap out the usual egg wash for a yogurt marinade—which is awesome. This mix uses Greek yogurt with a hint of curry powder, giving the chicken a tender and moist texture with a gentle, tangy kick. Seriously good. The curry flavor is not overwhelming; it just works with the yogurt. After marinating, the chicken gets coated in breadcrumbs and fried to perfection, resulting in a crispy and golden exterior, while staying juicy and soft inside. Honestly, it's like a classic fried chicken recipe meets international street food vibe.

Plus, one of the best parts? This method is super quick and easy compared to the traditional homemade fried chicken. You skip the whole fuss of flour, eggs, and multiple bowls—just one simple, flavorful yogurt marinade does the trick. The Greek yogurt not only keeps the chicken moist but also ensures the breading sticks really really well. You get those crispy chicken strips every time. This dish is perfect if you're into Greek yogurt recipes or looking for an easy chicken dinner. For real, the curry yogurt mix adds just enough flavor to keep things interesting. It’s versatile for various dipping sauces. And the sauce? Whether you go for ranch or a homemade yogurt dipping sauce with lemon and herbs, it pairs well with them all.

This fusion dish is a pretty simple twist on standard chicken recipes, offering a burst of flavor with minimal effort. It’s a real conversation starter, for sure, surprising everyone with how tender and crispy these chicken tenders can be, especially when compared to other options. If you are in the mood to try something different with chicken, this quick and flavorful approach is sure to impress and become a household favorite. Get ready for a taste sensation that's both easy to prepare and impossible to forget! Can't go wrong.

How to prepare Fried Chicken Strips with Yogurt

To prepare the fried chicken strips with yogurt, pour the Greek yogurt into a large bowl 1, season with curry powder 2, and a pinch of salt 3

and pepper to taste 4. Mix everything well with a spatula or spoon 5. Dip the strips and make sure they are well coated 6.

Heat plenty of peanut oil in a pan, bringing it to a temperature of about 340-355°F measured with a kitchen thermometer. While the oil is heating, bread the chicken one piece or a few pieces at a time 7. Then fry them for a few minutes: they should turn golden. Drain on paper towels 8. Here are your yogurt chicken strips ready, sprinkle them with sea salt flakes and fresh chopped parsley. Serve with some lemon slices 9.

Storage

It is recommended to consume the yogurt chicken strips immediately to prevent the breading from becoming soft or detaching from the chicken. Freezing is not recommended.
