Fake out: ChickFil-A
"Wow, mom! Did you get this from Chick-Fil-A?" -My 9 year old daughter.
When I say that this recipe comes pretty damn close to CFA's chicken... I mean it. Rumor has it that they pressure cook their chicken then fry them, but, I don't have any time for that! Is it the EXACT recipe replica? No. Will it fool your family? There's only one way to find out.
3 Chicken breasts
1 Cup Dill Pickle Juice
1 Pkg of Ritz Crackers
2 Handfulls Cheezits
2/4 Cup flour
2 cups Peanut or Sunflower Oil
Butterfly your chicken and pound it a few times. We don't want it flat... just tenderized slightly. Next, decide whether you want a sandwich, tenders or nuggets. Slice your chicken breast accordingly and let it marinade in the pickle juice for 30 minutes. You can leave it longer and let it get even more flavorful.
In a large ziplock bag add your crackers. Smash the crackers and add the flour.
When your chicken is finished marinating, add the breast pieces to the bag of crumbs and shake them around, being sure to nicely coat them.
Heat your oil in a skillet on high and fry them (in batches) for 7-9 minutes. Sprinkle them with sea salt after they come out of the fryer and enjoy.
Gone Paleo? Here's the alternate version.
