ingredients

• 2 lbs of chicken tenders or boneless skinless chicken breast pounded

• 1 lemon

• 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour

• 1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs

• 2 eggs

• 1 table spoon yellow mustard

• 2 teaspoons of Worcestershire

• 1 cup vegetable oil or more for frying

1. Squeeze lemon over chicken and let sit while you prepare the dredging bowls.

2. In a shallow rimmed plate or a very wide bowl, mix the eggs, mustard and Worcestershire with 2 table spoons of water. In another wide bowl place the breadcrumbs. And in a third shallow wide bowl place flour with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and a few healthy grinds of black pepper.

3. Dip the chicken in flour, egg mixture, then bread crumbs in that order. Make sure that between each step you shake off any excess.

4. Heat vegetable oil in a cast iron skillet. Make sure the oil comes up about 3/4” up the pan. Once the oil comes to about 300 degrees in temperature place the chicken and fry until golden brown turning over and moving slightly while it fries.
