List of Ingredients

6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
buttermilk
dash cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon chili powder
flour for dredging
salt and pepper
vegetable oil for frying



Recipe

Flatten chicken breasts with a wooden meat mallet. Place plastic wrap on top of the chicken beforehand if you wish. Slice into large strips. Place in a large bowl and cover completely with buttermilk. Stir in seasoning if you wish, they are optional. Refrigerate 4 to 6 hours. Fill a large shallow bowl with flour seasoned with salt and pepper. Heat two skillets with about a 1/2 inch of vegetable oil. While oil is heating, coat chicken fingers with seasoned flour. Fry chicken in hot oil until golden brown and done, turning once or twice. Oil should not cover the top of the strips. It should take about 10 minutes. You can do this in one large skillet and keep the chicken warm as you cook it in parts.
