So this is a recipe that I received from my friend(AKA Sparkles), a while ago and I have been meaning to make it. Here is her suggestions and recipe. Hope you enjoy!
It can also be baked, which makes it healthier and less greasy :DI don't typically measure the ingrediants, just kinda eyeball it, but I'll try to give you measurements. You don't have to stick to them exactly. If you have leftover breading mix, you can put it in a ziplock bag and freeze it to use next time. The freezing keeps bacteria from growing and so long as you cook the chicken all the way it's fine.
Breading mix:
2cups flour
1 cup Baking (or frying) Magic (sold in grocery stores near Shake & Bake)
1/2-3/4 cup bread crumbs
couple shakes each (about a tbs) onion powder, garlic powder and poultry seasoning.
Dip mix:
beat eggs (depending on how much chicken you're making) (typically 4-6 eggs for my family) add a splash of milk (or buttermilk) to eggs, dip chicken into egg mixture, then coat generously in the breading mix. Place on a cookie sheet and bake at 350 the amount of time you'll bake depends on the type of chicken. Bone in pieces take longer. Make sure you turn the pieces about half way through so that both sides crisp up.
If I'm making cornbread along with it, I've sometimes added a small glob of the cornbread batter to the egg mix, or just some cornmeal to the breading mix. If you add the dry cornmeal, half the amount of breadcrumbs and add the same amount of cornmeal as breadcrumbs. You can also use crushed cornflakes along with or in place of breadcrumbs
I typically use boneless skinless chicken breasts, fully defrosted, takes about 35-40 mins to bake.
If you decide to fry, use small amount of prefered oil and cook on med/high temp. Turning at least twice so breading doesn't burn.
