Larry's Favorite Chicken Fingers

INGREDIENTS
  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt*
  • 1/4 tsp pepper*
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 cup vegetable oil for frying
*Salt and pepper are the most basic seasoning you can use. I generally jazz up my flour mixture with garlic powder, cayenne pepper, or any variety of seasoning mixes (like Famous Dave's Steak & Burger seasoning).

DIRECTIONS
  1. Cut chicken into 1/2 x 2-inch strips.
  2. Mix flour, salt and pepper (or seasonings of choice) in a shallow bowl. Dip chicken in milk. Roll in flour mixture to coat well.
  3. Pour 1/4 inch of oil into a large heavy skillet. Heat over medium high heat to 350.*
  4. Divide chicken into batches. Place chicken in an even layer in hot oil. Fry, turning once, for about 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crisp. Drain on paper towels. Serve with sauce of choice.
*You can also use a deep fryer and fry for 3-5 minutes.
