Crunchy Pan-Fried Chicken

By Addie

A mix of cornmeal and breadcrumbs gives this fried chicken recipe a crisp bite while keeping the inside of the meat juicy. This crispy coating is also terrific on skinned and boned chicken thighs or pork chops.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup self-rising cornmeal mix
• 1/2 cup seasoned fine dry breadcrumbs
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 4 skinned and boned chicken breasts
• 1 large egg, beaten
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil

This was delicious. We will make this again. It was very simple, didn't take much time to make, and really juicy.

Delicious and easy, just followed the directions, very juicy. Also my boyfriend (who is big on southern comfort food) said I make the best fried chicken.

This is so easy to make and tastes great. My family loved it.

It was very easy to make... I added honey mustard to the egg for dipping the chicken, and it gave it a sweet and tangy taste.
