American-style Chicken Burgers
I had taken some chicken breast out of the freezer, and had no idea what to do with them. Then on my blogger feed, a recipe for chick-fil-a burgers popped up! Thats an American fast food chain, and as I have a soft spot for fast food, I wanted to try them. I was bit sceptical about the icing sugar in the recipe, but decided to go for it anyway. I'm glad I did, they tasted fantastic! Plus because you make them at home, you know what is in them and know that here are no hidden nasties. I served mine with just some mayo on a bun - yum!
4 boneless chicken breasts
1 egg
Splash of milk
1 cup plain flour
1 tablespoons icing sugar
1 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
vegetable oil for frying
4 buns
Place chicken breasts in a bag and pound out chicken to 1/2 inch thickness.
Beat egg and milk together in a bowl. Combine flour, sugar and spices in another bowl. Dip chicken on both sides in egg first, then flour mixture.
Heat oil in a deep frying pan. Fry each piece for a few minutes on each side, or until golden and cooked through. Serve in rolls with mayonnaise.

American food is my current favourite.
ReplyDeleteI've just bought Jamie's America and trying out a dish tonight from it.
Will do these soon too
What do you think of the book? Should I get it? :D
DeleteI like it, and yes, can never have too many recipe books.
ReplyDeleteI've tried three dishes so far, all with great success.
