• Category: Main Dishes

Ingredients

• 3-4 cup Canola Oil
• 1 tsp Salt
• 1 tsp Cayenne Pepper
• 1 cup Flour
• 8 Eggs
• 1 tsp Black Pepper
• 1 lb Chicken

Instructions

1. Begin by filling the bottom inch of the pan with canola oil.
2. Put this oil in the pan on high heat to begin to heat it up.
3. Crack the eggs into a bowl, and begin stirring them with a whisk.
4. Put the flour into a mixing bowl.
5. Add in one teaspoon of cayenne pepper, and one teaspoon of black pepper per cup of flour that you use.
6. Use a fork to stir it all together.
7. Set the flour and egg mixtures side by side.
8. Put the chicken into the egg bath, and immediately put it into the flour.
9. Once you've gotten all of the chicken stripes into the flour mixture, begin to turn them over to coat each side evenly with the flour.
10. Check the oil to see if it's hot enough to fry the chicken by sprinkling a little bit of flour, and if it bubbles then it is ready.
11. Begin by placing the chicken strips into the oil to fry, and make sure that they are all getting plenty of room to cook.
12. As the chicken's are cooking turn them frequently until they start turning into a golden brown color and begin to float.
13. When they are done cooking, put them onto a plate with towels on them and place the fried chicken on top of the towels to soak up any extra grease.
14. Enjoy!
