Southern Fried Chicken Strips - Just like kfc!! Well it,s the closest flavour I can get to the colonels secret recipe!!! Please note all the spices and herbs used are dry spices. Chicken thighs and drumsticks can also be used. Deep fry for 7 minutes then place the thighs on a wire rack and place into an oven at 210 degrees celcius for 25/30 mins to cook through. Turn the pieces a couple of times during cooking so batter remains crisp.

Ingredients
1 TEASPOON THYME
1 TEASPOON SALT
1 TEASPOON OREGANO
1 TEASPOON PAPRIKA
1 TEASPOON GROUND GINGER
1 TEASPOON GARLIC SALT
1 TABLESPOON DRY MUSTARD POWDER
1 TABLESPOON BLACK PEPPER
1 TABLESPOON MSG
1 TABLESPOON CELERY SALT
2 CUPS ALL PURPOSE FLOUR
3 EGGS MIXED WITH A LITTLE MILK
4 CHICKEN BREASTS SLICED INTO LONG THIN STRIPS

Method
1) PREHEAT DEEP FAT FRYER TO 170 DEGREES CELSIUS. MEASURE OUT AND MIX ALL THE DRY SPICES AND HERBS INTO A SMALL BOWL AND MIX THOROUGHLY. MEASURE OUT THE TWO CUPS OF FLOUR INTO A LARGE DISH AND THOROUGHLY MIX THE SPICE MIX THROUGH IT.
2) ASSEMBLE 3 DISHES LEFT TO RIGHT FOR THE DREDGING PROCESS. EGG MIX FIRST, THEN THE FLOUR AND SPICE MIX AND THEN A LIGHTLY FLOURED PLATE TO PLACE THE BATTERED STRIPS ON. DIP EACH STRIP IN THE EGG WASH, THEN THE FLOUR MIX, THEN REPEAT FOR A NICE CRISPY BATTER.
3) DEEP FRY THE STRIPS IN BATCHES FOR 7/8 MINUTES UNTIL COOKED THROUGH. SERVE WITH FRIES, SALAD AND COLESLAW. ENJOY!!
