Ingredients

The following ingredients have 11 Servings
  • 10-12 chicken strips (or 4-6 chicken breasts)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1½ C. milk
  • 1 Tbs. Worcestershire sauce
  • A spoonful of flour (see directions)
  • 1 packet of ranch dressing or dip mix
  • ½ tsp. ground black pepper
  • 3½ c. all purpose flour
  • olive oil (EVOO is always my oil of choice)
  • Homemade Buttermilk Ranch dressing (for dipping)

Instruction

  • In one bowl, whisk together your eggs, the milk and the Worcestershire sauce. Add a spoonful or two of flour. You want a really smooth consistency but with a little bit of hold. (this will make dipping easier and keep it on the chicken). When adding the flour, I often start with just a bit and keep adding until I like how it looks and holds on the chicken.
  • In another bowl, combine the rest of your flour, pepper and the packet of ranch dressing or dip. If you want to add more seasonings, go right ahead.
  • In a large frying pan over medium high heat, place a lot of olive oil, you want it to come about halfway up the sides of your chicken. I think I used a little over a cup. You want to make sure that chicken is nearly covered on the sides.
  • Allow your olive oil to heat up at least 5 minutes. While this is happening, you can move onto the next step.
  • Take a piece of chicken and dip it into the egg mixture. Coat it really well, make sure all sides get some. Next, dredge it through your ranch/flour mixture, making sure of course, to cover all sides of the chicken.
  • Wait! Now I want you to repeat it one more time. Yes, same piece of chicken. Re-dip it into the egg mixture a little quicker this time (you don’t want all the flour to come off) and then dredge it back through the flour mixture again.
  • You are now ready to fry the chicken. Simply place the chicken into your frying pan. Fry the chicken until the outside is golden brown and crisp, about 10-12 minutes per side. Be sure and flip during the halfway point.
  • Serve with a side of homemade ranch dressing for a delicious meal!
