Teresa- April Recipe- Pan Fried Chicken

This is my April plan. Let me know if it is something that will work for everyone.

Homemade Pan Fried Chicken

30 crackers, crushed fine (we usually use wheat saltines, whole grain club, but any kind works.)

2 TBS flour

2 TBS potato flakes

½ tsp pepper

1 TBS seasoned salt

1 TBS garlic powder

2-3 eggs

A few TBS flour

*¼ C olive oil- you will need to provide this. Use sparingly and add as needed when frying. You don't need much.

1 1/2 lbs. Chicken breast halves (pounded thin if desired)

Crush crackers in a bag. Add all seasoning, 2 TBS flour, and potato flakes. Beat the egg. Dip the chicken in the extra flour, the eggs, and then the coating. Pan fry in a little olive oil until cooked through (about 5-7 min on each side) Tip:get two pans going at once and then you can have them all done at the same time. You can also bake @ 375* for 15-25 min as well, but it is MUCH better pan cooked. After being frozen I recommend the pan method.

Freezer Directions:

Thaw chicken. I separated mine before thawing. Then cook as directed above.

Serving Suggestions: We like Au-gratin potatoes, or any type of potatoes, and a fresh veggie, salad, or corn on the cob.

LEFT OVER TIP: It is super yummy cold, cut up, and put on a salad.
