Chicken Fried Chicken?

I know, crazy right? My country cookin' friends seem to think so too. I, on the other hand think it is a great idea.

Most southern cooks talk about chicken fried steak or chicken fried pork. Well, why not chicken fried chicken?  No bone, no dark meat less grease. Sounds good to me. Since my mom is an amazing cook and doesn't shy away from any recipe, I thought I can do it too.

So even with the mocking from others I tried it. Turned out great. The kitchen smelled like home cookin at it's finest.

I will tweek the breading recipe spices a a bit next time.



My Chicken Fried Chicken Recipe

4 Chicken Cutlets

1/2 cup GF cornmeal
1/2 cup grated GF cornflake cereal
1/2 tsp garlic
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp red crushed pepper
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 tsp salt

1/2 cup almond milk
1 large egg
Canola oil

Add milk and egg together in cereal size bowl. Mix well
Add all dry ingredients in cereal size bowl. Mix well.

Heat canola oil in large frying pan. About 1/4 inch in the bottom is good. Heat until it bubbles a bit.
Dip chicken cutlets into liquid mixture, coat well. Then dip cutlet in dry mixture. Coat well.
Put in frying pan. Fry for four minutes each side, until browned well.
Put on paper towel to soak up excess oil and let cool a bit before eating.

My two best critics, my Jack Russell Terriers couldn't wait to try a bite and both asked for seconds. Tee hee. Of course, a bite means little tiny piece. When I told them "all gone" they asked for their nighttime snack of peanut butter in their Kongs. So much for taste.

Have a Health-a-licious Day.

Digestion being Gluten-FreeFollow my blog with Bloglovin

Since the first day I started gluten-free. I have notice my food is digesting immediately. My system is also making much more noise. LOL. I am a little afraid to eat in public. I thought maybe it was just because I was eating so many grapes. I have found it is after every meal for about a half hour. The neat thing about this immediate digestion is that my stomach area is not bloated all day like it used to be. I do notice tummy bloat if I eat just a little bit of gluten on accident. For example, you would think beef jerky would be gluten free. apparently not. I ate a little. It tasted delicious. I didn't realize it had any gluten. The next morning I woke up with a funny taste in my mouth and a bloated tummy all day long. I didn't put two and two together until I read the back of the beef jerky packaging. Warning: Contains wheat and soy. My PA (Physician's Assistant) says my headaches will often get worse with major nausea. I am hoping the gluten free...

Sugar Cravings, Detox and More

So my hubby was selected by his company to be a lead in a certain group which meant he would be traveling for 4 days. Perfect, I thought. I will only eat vegies or fruit, and drink coffee, tea or water. My fav foods are vegies and fruit. I know I need protein so I eat it, but if I didn't have to I wouldn't eat it everyday. I love, vegies, fruit and desert. In fact one of my fav meals is a huge vegie plate and a pint of Hagen Daaz Gelato. So...I decided to do a detox while my hubby was out of town. $72.00 for what I felt was 4 days worth of fruits and vegetables. I did the detox. Only water, coffee or tea. Only vegetables or fruits. No sauces, no sugars, no condiments except herbs and spices. Every day about 3p, I started getting a headache. I would eat a piece of fruit. That wouldn't help. I decided after those 3 days that I am addicted to sugar. So I am now working my way to be sugar free with the exception of fruits. The holidays are proving challenging because of f...
