chicken recipe

My kids have been begging for KFC. I experimented and seemed successful in coming up with my own recipe for fried chicken. This is nowhere near the KFC recipe, but I heard no complaints. Well, except from the littlest, who seems to be making it his life goal to eat as little meat as possible.

Fried Chicken Legs

5 chicken legs
2 egg whites
1 c. panko breadcrumbs
1/4 c. flour
salt and pepper to taste--maybe throw in some garlic powder, too, if you like
1-2 T. canola oil

Mix breadcrumbs, flour, and seasoning together in shallow dish. Dip chicken legs (or any other kind of chicken) in egg whites and then in breadcrumb mixture. Fry chicken in frying pan coated with oil. When crunchy, transfer legs to 8x8 pan. Bake at 350 degrees until juices run clear.
