We eat a lot of chicken around here. Grilled, fried, baked. We love it all! But there’s nothing like eating some good, crunchy fried chicken with a hint of spice. That’s why I use the best crispy fried chicken recipe again and again.
Combining Panko bread crumbs into a traditional southern style frying method makes for a light and delicious crispy chicken. I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts for this recipe. But you can use this method for wings or legs too.
Traditional Southern fried chicken combines chicken and flour as the final breading. By adding the Panko Breadcrumbs we add an additional layer of texture and crunch. I also added some Frank’s Red Hot Sauce to my egg mixture. My family doesn’t like a lot of spice, but add more hot sauce if you like things spicy and want to add some heat to your meat. Give it a try and let me know what you think!
