In a shallow dish, combine the flour, cinnamon, onion powder, garlic powder, seasoned salt, and black pepper.

Fill a large skillet with an inch of vegetable oil and heat it to 350°F (use a deep-fry thermometer to check the temperature).

Carefully place the coated chicken strips into the hot oil and cook for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
