Paprika Fried Chicken


This dish may not be on your diet, but if you are going to splurge, splurge with this! The buttermilk is the ingredient that makes this fried chicken taste so special. Also, you can make onion rings with this batter. Mmmm!

Ingredients:
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts - pound thin
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons paprika
1/2 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 egg
1 cup vegetable oil for frying

Directions:
In a shallow baking dish, whisk together the buttermilk and egg.
Using a separate shallow baking dish, combine dry ingredients.
Set electric skillet to 350 degrees F.
Dip the chicken into the buttermilk/egg mixture, to thoroughly drench; evenly coat with the dry ingredients.
Fry chicken breasts in hot oil for 5 to 6 minutes; turn and fry additional 5 or 6 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
Remove from oil with slotted spatula.
Let chicken sit a minute on heavy duty paper towels, and serve.
