need help for fried chicken breading (like at dennys)

[Mr. Hahn]

hi,

i love fried chicken. i know how to season the breading etc. by myself. the only thing i could not find out is how to make a real thick crispy breading. i mean like a breading that the chicken strips have from dennys. anyone got an idea? maybe anyone that has a recipe for fried chicken like at dennys? thanks

Hi Mr. Hahn -

There are a couple of things that can be done - some people use coarsely crushed croutons for their breading, some will (after dipping in egg or eggwash or buttermilk), press your chicken into your crumb mixture coating both sides well, shake off excess and dip back into the egg/eggwash/or buttermilk, and press again in the crumbs, refrigerate or freeze for 30 minutes, fry or bake - if frying or deep frying make sure your oil is hot and at the right temp.

I hope this helps.
