Cut chicken breast into strips.

Marinate chicken strips with soy sauce, ginger, and garlic for 30 minutes.

Preheat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat.

Prepare three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with curry powder.

Dredge each chicken strip in flour, then dip in eggs, and finally coat with the breadcrumb mixture.

Fry chicken strips in hot oil until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes per side.

Remove chicken strips and drain on paper towels.

Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
