Baked Fried Chicken

This “Fried Chicken” is finger lickin’ good and not bad for your waist line! My husband and I ate boneless skinless chicken breasts and the kids love the drumsticks and thighs or “chicken bones” as my 7 year old likes to call them. Marinate chicken (your favorite kind) in buttermilk and a dash of hot sauce for an hour. I add 2 eggs directly to the buttermilk mixture and mix it around to coat the chicken. Meanwhile in a large plastic bag add 1/2 corn flakes and 1/2 potato chips (I used reduced fat kettle chips). Crush until you achieve your desired consistency. Add seasoned salt and pepper to dry mix but remember your potato chips are salty too. Dredge chicken in cornflake mixture until coated on both sides. Lay on greased cookie sheet. Add a dash of cayenne on top of the chicken for those who like it hot. Drizzle a little EVOO on top of each piece of chicken which will help crisp the top. Bake at 400 degrees for ? Sorry, I didn’t time it. ~20-30 minutes…

Babe’s Salad Dressing

Pure Texas last night and oh my gosh! Loved the Fried chicken, corn, and biscuits but my takeaway was the salad dressing. It was a very simple salad which made the dressing really stand out. 2 TBS sugar 1 tsp salt 1/4 tsp fresh ground pepper 1/4 c apple cider vinegar 2 Tbs canola oil (or Grape Seed Oil) 1 head Iceberg lettuce Combine all ingredients in a jar and shake. Refrigerate. Tear iceberg lettuce in pieces and refrigerate. Dress salad and top with a lot of cracked black pepper. ETC. Another key is serving the salad on a cold bowl or plate.
