Crunchy Nut Chicken Low Fat Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven 180deg C (350 deg F) fan forced.
• Place corn flakes in a plastic bag then using a rolling pin crush finely.
• Add nuts and stock powder into bag and shake, tip onto a flat plate.
• Using a fork beat egg white and milk.
• Dip flattened breasts in egg mixture, then coat each side of chicken with crumbs.
• Place on a flat baking tray that has been coated with cooking spray, spray over top of chicken and bake 25-30 mins or until cooked and coating is golden brown.

Steps:

• Cut chicken breasts into about 3 pieces and put into a ziplock bag, add the buttermilk and marinade overnight, or for at least 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 325°F and spray a baking sheet with Pam cooking spray.
• Put all the dry ingredients into a ziplock bag and shake to combine.
• Remove chicken from the ziplock bag and shake off any excess buttermilk and add to the breadcrumb mix, add 3 pieces at a time and shake to coat the chicken.
• Remove and place on baking sheet.
• Repeat till all pieces are coated.
• Spray chicken with Pam cooking spray and bake for about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Cut the chicken into pieces.
• Remove skin and extra fat from each piece (except wings -- too hard!).
• When all pieces are skinned and rinsed, salt each piece on both sides and put into a large bowl.
• Cover bowl and allow to sit in refrigerator overnight, if possible, but at least for an hour or two.
• Heat your recycled shortening (see below) in dutch oven.
• Pour milk into a medium bowl, and flour into another.
• When the shortening is hot enough, roll a piece of chicken in the flour, then dip into the milk, then roll in flour again.
• Carefully drop each piece into hot oil. If the shortening is hot enough, the chicken will float. Depending on the size of your kettle, a whole chicken might be 4-6 batches; just don't overload the kettle.
• Larger pieces may need to be turned over.
• Remove pieces with tongs when golden brown; place on paper towels to drain.
• Serve hot, but it's great cold the next day!
• Recycled shortening: Crisco, for example, comes in a 3-lb. "can" (in quotes because it's cardboard, not metal). The first time you make this chicken, use a full can. When the cooking is done and the shortening has cooled somewhat, pour the liquid into a container (metal coffee can, or similar) except for the brown sludge at the bottom (residue from flour, etc,) which is thrown out. Save the shortening, covered, in your refrigerator until next time. Add enough fresh shortening to the kettle to replace the part you threw out. P.S. When starting with all fresh shortening, adding a little bacon grease will improve flavor of your first batch of chicken.

Steps:

• Mix together chicken, water chestnuts, and celery.
• Blend together sour cream, mayonnaise, curry powder, soy sauce, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
• Pour over chicken mixture and mix to combine.
• Stir in grapes.
• Chill at least 2 hours before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Spray cookie sheet with non-stick spray.
• In shallow dish combine bread crumbe & dressing mix (I use my food processor to mix them together because I usually make my own bread crumbs with toast - viola! the bread is already in there!).
• Dip chicken in sounr cream, then crumb mixture.
• Place on cookie sheet, spray chicken with cooking spray (if desired).
• Discard any remaining bread crumbs & sour cream.
• Bake at 375 for 30-35 minutes or until chicken is fork tender and juices run clear.
