Chicken Basket

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    In a bowl, mix the flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk.

  2. 2

    Coat the Chicken

    Dip each chicken thigh first into the egg mixture, then into the flour mixture until well coated. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Fry the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Fry the chicken thighs for 6-8 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Cook the Fries

    Prepare the frozen French fries according to package instructions, typically baking or frying until crispy.

  5. 5

    Make the Coleslaw

    In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage and carrots. In a separate bowl, mix the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss to combine.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the fried chicken alongside the crispy fries and coleslaw on the side.
