chicken fingers and fries



so this is one of those take time meals and it is def not figure freindly but u sometimes just have to splurge and do it.

homemade fries, the key is to fry them twice.. i fry them 1st and then put them in a 300 degree oven while im frying the chicken in its batches. also i put a cooling rake on a cookie sheet in the oven to hold them. once you are done the chicken fry them the second time and dont forget the salt.  sooo good..
chicken fingers are a little messy but so worth it..
start with defrosted chicken and cut it into strips.. coat in egg (just egg) and then into your flour mixture ( i use 2 cups flour, season salt, garlic powder, italian seasoing and sometimes that bottled parmasen cheese).  mix that up and coat your chicken in the flour mixture and fry in batches.. wait till it floats and is brown.. put into the oven with the fries while your getting it all fried.. also make sure u cut through a couple to make sure there fully cooked..
we eat with homemade fry sauce.. i also have a fry daddy which makes this whole process easier.. enjoy.. A-
