Ingredients
- 2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 cup flour
- 1/4 tsp paprika
- 1 egg
- 1 cup milk
- 2 chicken breasts
- 2 to 4 cups cooking oil
- 1/4 cup hot sauce
- 1 tbsp margarine
Directions
-
In a medium bowl, combine salt, peppers, flour and paprika. In another bowl, whisk together the egg and milk.
-
Slice each chicken into bite-size pieces.
-
Preheat oil in deep fryer or skillet.
-
Dip pieces of chicken into the egg mixture 1 or 2 at a time, then into the flour/spice mixture. Repeat so that each piece of chicken is double coated.
-
When all the chicken pieces have been breaded, arrange them on a plate and chill for 15 minutes.
-
Drop each piece of chicken into hot oil and fry for 5 to 6 minutes, or until the breading is golden brown.
-
In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the hot sauce and margarine. Microwave for 20 to 30 seconds, or just until the margarine has melted.
-
When the chicken pieces are done frying, remove them to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb the excess oil.
-
Place the chicken pieces into a covered container. Pour the sauce over the chicken, put the lid on, and shake gently until each piece of chicken is coated with sauce.
