Cheesy Breaded Chicken

Breading

1 5oz bag of cheese and garlic crutons crushed
1 1/2 cup of Vigo bread crumbs with Romano cheese
1/4 cup of Kraft powder three cheese blend

Place all breading ingredients in a bag and when the bag is sealed, shake to mix throughly.

Beat two raw eggs with a fork or whisk in a bowl until the eggs bubble and look completely yellow.

Season raw chicken as you desire, and bath in the eggs, getting as much covered as you can. Add the chicken into the breading bag and shake well to coat the chicken.

Fry on low heat and serve.

The breading amount should be enough to cover six pounds of chicken., Should you have left overs simply throw the bag in the fridge and cook another breaded meal within three days to make it not go to waste.

Final comments
This recipe is based around the breading itself and not the meat used with it. Because of the versatilely of the breading, and being a non flour breading, it is good for people who dislike fried chicken in most cases. The oil used does matter, and will effect flavor but thats up to the chef to decide what to use.

Tilapia with Lemon Garlic Sauce

I return after a few weeks of delay with something new

Tilapia with Lemon Garlic Sauce

Ingredients

Tilapia Fillets

Sauce

2 tbsp butter

2 tbsp flour

1 1/2 tbsp lemon juice

1/2 table spoon of sugar

1 tbsp parsley

2 tbsp garlic powder

Double protons if making for a larger group. This size should be enough for one to three people.

For the fillets cook them as you desire. I personally add Italian herbs onto them while grilling for extra flavor. After all the fillets are made, start on the sauce.

Take the butter and simmer it on low heat in a frying pan on the stove. The butter needs to melt into a nice yellow color. Don't let it brown or it'll taste burnt.

Once the butter is ready, take it off the heat and add the flour. Afterwards whisk the two together thoroughly. At this point the sauce should have a noticeable thickness to it, add the herbs here. Whisk again until it is all mixed together, and then add the lemon juice. Whisk one final time and return to low heat to let it simmer and warm up.

The sauce can be made with alternative ways should the lemon be too tart for the cook. Some sugar can remove some of tartness or alternatively reduce the lemon to only a single table spoon.

For those who adore the taste of lemon try with two or two and a half table spoons of lemon juice.

End Price

The main ingredients which need to be as fresh as possible are the Fillets and Lemon juice so I'd say about ten to fifteen all around.

Fillets: $6.50 (2lb)

Lemon juice: $3.00

Garlic powder: $3.00

Lasting value

One meal maybe two.

Final comments: A nice sauce topping for many different kinds of meals to give them a spark of flavor. Works well with chicken as well.
