Country Fried Chicken Tenders


1 1/2 - 2 cups flour
2 tsp. garlic salt
2 tsp. MSG (Accent)
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1 tsp. paprika
1 tsp. poultry seasoning

Mix above ingredients in a paper or plastic bag.
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/2 cup milk (or half and half)

Using a fork, lightly beat egg and milk together in a small bowl.

1 lb. boneless skinless chicken tenders

Shake chicken tenders (3 or 4 at a time) in flour mixture then dip in egg and milk mixture and shake in flour mixture again. Repeat until all chicken is coated. Fry chicken in a half inch of oil at 375 degrees for 30 minutes (or longer depending on size of chicken pieces), turning occasionally.

Carmen,
Where on earth do you get MSG? I'm guessing it's in an aisle next to salt, lard and other things that are awesome tasting but totally bad for you?

Well, Shauna...you get msg in the spice section. I'm not sure it is totally bad for you, but I think some people may be allergic to it. I use it in a lot of dishes. It is a flavor enhancer and probably not a necessary ingredient in any recipe. I buy Accent which is just a brand name for msg.

Food Network's "Food Detectives" said that MSG is in NO way harmful to you. So Carmen pass that along to your viewers. Love your Citris Sangria
