Ree Drummond Crispy Chicken Strips Recipe Recipe For Zucchini

CRUNCHY CEREAL CHICKEN FINGERS

Steps:

• Heat 1/4 inch of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Put the flour in a shallow bowl and add some salt and pepper. Put the egg in a second shallow bowl. Put the cereal in a resealable plastic bag and pound into crumbs with your hands until mostly broken up with some bigger pieces. Transfer the cereal to a third shallow bowl.
• Dip the chicken strips first in the flour, then the egg and then the cereal. Cook the strips in batches until golden brown and cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
• Stir together the ketchup, applesauce and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl. Serve as a dip with the chicken fingers.

CRISPY CHICKEN FLORENTINE MELT

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Make a breading assembly line with 3 separate dishes: flour seasoned with salt and pepper, milk and eggs whisked together and panko seasoned with salt and pepper. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then bread them by dredging in the flour, then dipping in the egg mixture and finally coating in the crumbs. Set aside.
• Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter with 4 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Brown the chicken breasts on the first side for 3 to 4 minutes, being careful not to burn them. Flip and brown them for another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove to a rack placed over a baking sheet and transfer to the oven to finish cooking, about 5 minutes.
• Remove the chicken from the oven and turn on the broiler. Top the chicken with the mozzarella slices and broil until the cheese is melted.
• Heat a small skillet over medium-high heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the tomatoes, sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss to cook quickly until the tomatoes start to break apart, about 2 minutes. Add the spinach and garlic, then stir/toss to wilt the spinach, 2 to 3 minutes. Spoon the tomato/spinach mixture over the chicken and serve.

CRISPY CHICKEN SKINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Gently pull the skin off the chicken breasts (reserve the breast meat for another use), pat dry and cut in thirds lengthwise. Place them skin-side up in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
• Mix the salt, pepper, thyme and rosemary together in a small bowl, crushing the spices with a spoon. Sprinkle the chicken skins with some of the spice mix; it makes more than you need, but you can keep it for another day. Cover the skins with a layer of parchment and top with a baking sheet to weigh it down, making sure the top sheet presses down on the skins.
• Bake until the skins are browned and crisp, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove the top baking sheet and parchment and transfer the skins to a plate lined with paper towel to cool and crisp up.

CRISPY CHICKEN STRIPS

Steps:

• Submerge the chicken strips in the buttermilk for 15 to 20 minutes (or longer if you'd like).
• In another bowl, combine the flour and seasoning salt (or other seasonings if you prefer). Mix this together well. Next, gradually drizzle 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the buttermilk into the flour mixture and stir lightly with a fork as you add it to achieve clumps.
• Heat about 1 inch vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-low to medium heat.
• Remove a few of the buttermilk-soaked chicken strips and place them in the flour mixture, turning them over to coat thoroughly. Place them on a plate. Continue coating the chicken strips until they are all ready to cook.
• When the oil is sufficiently heated, begin cooking the strips a few at a time. Cook them for about a minute and a half or so on each side. When golden and crispy and the chicken is done, remove them to a paper-towel-lined plate. Do not allow them to burn.
• Serve with your favorite dipping sauce. Yum!
