Chicken Toes Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized chunks. In a bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk.

  2. 2

    Coat the Chicken

    Dip each chicken piece first into the egg mixture and then coat with the flour mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Fry the Chicken

    Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the coated chicken pieces in batches and fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Make the Roasted Tomato Jam

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the tomatoes in half and place them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt, and roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes until soft. In a saucepan, combine the roasted tomatoes, sugar, balsamic vinegar, and fresh basil. Cook on low heat for about 10 minutes, stirring until thickened.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the seasoned fried chicken chunks with the roasted tomato jam on the side.
