Place the blanched asparagus in one of the bags of flour and the chicken strips in the other bag of flour; shake well

Shake in breadcrumbs until coated completely
Carefully place the asparagus in the hot oil and fry until golden brown; Repeat with the chicken strips
Make sure to salt the asparagus and chicken strips as soon as they come out of the oil to get the best flavor
