Chicken Fluffs

This post is a day late as we are enjoying the humid, hot, sunny, humid, did I say humid weather in Charleston. My last post described how we plan the week’s meals to avoid confusion and having to get a consensus of the group. Even the best laid plans change. We have made some minor changes along the way, subbing special items the group wants to have.

We used to make these chicken fluffs when the kids were young. We would make about 5 lbs in a turkey fryer and all the kids and their friends would show up. This was before Micky D’s started to use real chicken instead of the reconstituted Chicken McNuggets. Anyway, I made some of these to take to Charleston to use for appetizers for the few who don’t eat shrimp and seafood. They also come in handy for lunches. This is the same recipe I use for Chicken Piccata, they stay moist and absorb the flavors of the lemon and capers.

Meal:

N/A

2

lb

chicken breasts, boneless, skinless

2

large

egg

3

Tb

water

0.5

• cup
• rice flour
• 1
• cup
• Panko breadcrumbs
• 0.5
• cup
• oil, olive

1

pinch

salt and pepper to taste

Cut chicken breast into 1/2 thick slices, on the bias. Place rice flour in a plate with a rim, mix eggs and water and place in a second plate. Put the panko in the third plate. Salt and pepper each bowl to taste.

Place enough oil in a saute pan to cover the bottom. Heat until just shimmering. Dip the chicken in the flour, then into the eggs and finally into the panko; shaking after each dip to take off the excess. Place into the hot oil and saute until golden on both sides. Do not overcrowd the pan. Add more oil to the pan as needed. Drain the cooked chicken on paper towels. Shown here with cocktail dipping sauce.

May be frozen at this point and then reheated.
