Supper last night

2020-12-06 Jeff

I wasn’t sure what we going to do with this shallow fried chicken strips, but we figured it out. If anyone has tips for making excellent breading I’m all ears. The seasoning was pretty good, but the breading was weak. I marinated them in butter milk for a wash before breading and frying.
