Chicharrones De Pollo (Chicken Dominican-Republic Style) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    Marinade
    1/2 cup fresh lime juice (about 2 medium limes)
    2 tablespoons soy sauce
    1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    Chicken
    1 1/4 lbs boneless chicken breasts, strips
    1 cup flour
    1 teaspoon sweet paprika
    3/4 teaspoon black pepper
    1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
    vegetable oil, about 1 to 1/2 cups (for frying)
Preparation
    Combine marinade ingredients in a plastic zipper bag.
    Add chicken strips and marinate in refrigerator for at least 3 hours.
    Combine flour, paprika, pepper and salt in another zipper bag.
    Transfer chicken strips to flour mixture, coating evenly.
    Heat oil over medium-high heat and fry chicken in batches of 4 strips (don't overcrowd; oil will cool down too much during cooking), taking about 4 minutes per side to brown outside and thoroughly cook insides.
    When done, transfer chicken strips to a plate lined with paper towels, and lightly sprinkle with salt.
    Cook remaining batches of strips, keeping others warm in a low-temp oven.
