Fried Chicken Strips



Ingredients:
2-2/3 cups crushed saltines (about 80 crackers)
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 egg
1 cup milk
1-1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-inch strips
Oil for frying

Directions:
1. In a shallow bowl, combine the first five ingredients. In another shallow bowl, beat egg and milk. Dip chicken into egg mixture, then cracker mixture.

2. In an electric skillet, on the stovetop (which is how i do it) or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry chicken, a few strips at a time, for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.

  1. YUM!!! I like that there's seasoning in the breading and not just breading/flour. Might have to give this one a try. All you food looks sooo good!

  2. so, do you ever at least TRY your meat meals? because i simply couldn't cook meat if i were a vegetarian. i would be way too tempted. especially with fried chicken.

  6. That's easy Jen. I've been a vegetarian for 16 years. I met my husband the carnivore 5 years ago so I was pretty set in my food ways when we met =)
