Ingredients

Ingredients:

  • 10 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into bite size pieces
  • 2 teaspoons seasoning salt
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • oil for frying

Instructions

  • Combine garlic, chicken, seasoning salt and olive oil together in a bowl. Toss to mix well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
  • When ready to cook, combine flour, garlic, salt and pepper together in a resealable plastic bag. In a bowl whisk together eggs and milk.
  • Place the chicken in the flour and shake to coat. Dunk the chicken into the eggs and milk and then place back in the bag of flour. Shake to coat once more.
  • Heat 1/2 inch of oil in a skillet over medium high heat to 350 degrees. If you don't have a thermometor, sprinkle a bit of flour in the oil and if it sizzles the oil is ready. Fry the chicken, in batches, until golden brown and cooked through, 2 - 3 minutes per side. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to a paper toweled lined plate. Place in a warm oven to keep warm. Repeat until all chicken is fried. Serve hot.
