Why would any thinking person spend $5 for 50¢ worth of chicken
(mostly greasy breading) at a fast food joint, and tastes like nothing
memorable to boot? Chicken is very inexpensive, I can buy a three
pound package of skinless boneless chicken breasts for about $5 and
prepare them however I want with less effort than it took to make the
excursion to that fast food dive.
My secret seasoned dredging flour:
1 cup flour (I use Wondra)
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp fresh ground white pepper
1/2 tsp granulated garlic
1 tsp sweet paprika
1/4 tsp msg
Optional - cayenne to taste
Slice each breast into three cutlets, dredge in my secret seasoned
flour and fry on medium heat til golden.
