Southern Fried Chicken Fingers

Quick, Easy and Delicious! 

• 4  boneless chicken breast halves

• 1/2 cup water

• 1  large egg

• 1  tsp. salt, or to taste

• 2-3 dashes Hot Sauce, or more if you dare!

• vegetable shortening or oil, for frying

• 2 cups Vidalia Brands’ Batter Mix

Slice chicken into strips and place in a glass or plastic bowl.  Whisk water with egg, salt and hot sauce until evenly blended and pour over chicken.   Toss to coat well, then cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes. 

Heat 1 inch of vegetable shortening or oil in a heavy gauge skillet over a medium high setting.  Place dry batter mix in a bag for shaking.   Add chicken strips to the bag, 1-2 at a time and shake until thoroughly coated.   Fry in a single layer until golden, turning once.  Chicken should be fully white in the center.  Drain over paper toweling and serve hot with Vidalia Brands’ Honey Mustard or Vidalia Brands’ Blossom Sauce.

Yield: 4 servings. 

Chicken can be substituted with: Fish Fillets
