Momma Joy's fried chicken


This is a favorite of my hubby's, his dad and his brother. This would include fighting over the last piece at the dinner table.


4 sleeves of townhouse Orginial crackers
1 pkg of chicken breasts, boneless, skinless, cut into 1-2 inch thick strips or thicker. Season with salt and pepper
4 eggs
Milk
Canola oil
Salt and pepper

Fill an electric skillet with canola oil about two inches deep. Heat to 400 degrees.

In a gallon zip lock bag empty two sleeves of crackers. Finely crush crackers with a rolling pin, make sure the air is out of the bag. Empty crumbs into a shallow baking dish. Repeat with other two sleeves. 

In another bowl scramble the four eggs with a little milk. 

For the set up, if your right handed, electric skillet to tte right, to the left the dish with crumbs, the eggs in the dish by the crumbs. Have a plate lined with paper towel. 

Dip chicken strips in egg then press then into cracker crumbs. Put into the skillet, fry til golden brown on one side, flip, fry til golden brown. I usually fry 8-9 pieces at a time. Place fried chicken on paper towel. Repeat with rest of chicken.
