Crispy Chicken Caesar Salad
For this upcoming summertime, I am trying stay with eating salads, of course eating other food in the process but mainly salads. Chicken Caesar salad is popular along with Cobb Salad, and Fresh Fruit Salad. I was at the grocery store, I always get chicken tenderloin by Perlin, the grocery store I went to didn't have the chicken tenderloin but they had thin sliced chicken breast. For the ones that don't know about chicken tenderloins, they are tenders just short thin cuts taken from the beneath the breast of the chicken, nothing special. I had an idea to cook thin slices chicken breast and seasoning it with different seasonings. I have been doing romaine lettuce, along tomatoes and cucumbers a basic salad, let's jazz it up. While I was in the store, I pick up salad trail mix (cranberries, sunflower seeds, salted sesame sticks, slivered almonds, pepitas (pumpkin seeds) and other ingredients) to go in my salad. This salad trail mix bring out the salad more with flavor.
Items

4 whole Grape tomatoes

2 Eggs

***For the seasoning you can mix your own seasonings together
Instructions
Get two bowls one for the flour and seasonings and the other for the 2 eggs (instead of eggs you can also use milk or use eggs and milk together). To make chicken nice a crispy have a dry batter along with a liquid batter which is called the wash.
Pour in the measurements for the flour and seasoning in the bowl, then mix them together. Crack the eggs and mix it well so it won't be no lumps.
Wash chicken, place them on the plate and ready to flour chicken.
Okay I do this, I use one hand for the batters and the other hand for the chicken.
Place the chicken in the dry batter first then the egg wash and back into the flour. Place the chicken on a cooling rack (if you don't have a rack, you can place it on a plate) so the batter can stay on the chicken. This will make the chicken nice and crispy. For extra crispy repeat the step twice.
Once all the chicken has been complete, turn on stove top close to high and pour 2 cups of oil olive in skillet.
When the oil is hot, place chicken in the skillet and let it cook for 5 minutes on each side; because the chicken it cut thin it wouldn't take long for the chicken to cook.
***If you only have one rack like I do, place the other chickens on a plate and wash the rack. Place the cook chicken on the cooling rack for the chicken to cool off.
While the chickens are done cooking and cooling, prepare salad.
Now, I did two styles of preparing this salad; one the lettuce are chopped, and the other style where I have the lettuce whole. This is your salad, style it anyway you want and Enjoy!!!
