Fried Om Nom Nom!

Today I saw we had some chicken breasts in the fridge, so I decided to try a new recipe.  Here it is:

Southern Fried Chicken
 
Ingredients:

Your favorite dry chicken rub or seasoning
4 pieces boneless chicken breast
1 1/2 cup self-rising flour
3/4 cup hot red pepper sauce
2   eggs

Directions

Heat the oil to 350 degrees F in a deep pot. Do not fill the pot more than 1/2 full with oil.

In a medium size bowl, beat the eggs. Add enough hot sauce so the egg mixture is bright orange (about 3/4 cup). Season the chicken with the rub or seasoning.  Dip the seasoned chicken in the egg, and then coat well in the flour. Place the chicken in the preheated oil and fry the chicken in the oil until brown and crisp.  Approximate cooking time is 10 to 12 minutes.

We accompanied it with corn on the cob and apple sauce.  It was so very, very good.  Mackie, who doesn't like meat much, ate every bite, and Aran, who has to be coaxed to eat, cleaned his plate and asked for more.  This one's a keeper, though we almost never deep fry, so we won't make it too often.
