Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breast
  • 1 cup unseasoned bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp. hot sauce
  • 1 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1 tsp. paprika
  • 1/2 tsp. dry mustard
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • pinch cayenne pepper
  • vegetable oil for frying

Special Sauce

  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 Tbsp. ketchup

Instructions
 

  • Pulse the flour, breadcrumbs and dry spices in a food processor until fine. Transfer the mixture to a shallow bowl.

  • Serve chicken fries warm with special sauce for dipping.
