Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare Chicken Fingers

    Cut chicken breasts into strips. In three separate bowls, set up a breading station with flour, beaten eggs, and bread crumbs mixed with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

  2. 2

    Dredge each chicken strip in flour, dip in beaten eggs, then coat with bread crumbs.

  3. 3

    Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Fry chicken fingers in batches until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Cook French Fries

    Bake or fry the frozen French fries according to package instructions until crispy.

  5. 5

    Prepare Calabacitas

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add zucchini, yellow squash, and bell pepper, and sauté until tender, about 5-7 minutes.

  6. 6

    Prepare Salad

    Chop lettuce and tomato. Toss together in a bowl and serve with dressing of choice.

  7. 7

    Toast the Texas toast slices until golden brown in a toaster or on a skillet.
