Chicken

  • Preheat oil in large frying pan over medium heat. In a small shallow bowl, whisk egg and milk together. In a separate bowl, combine flour, cornflakes, salt and pepper. Cut up chicken into 4 or 5 long strips. Dip chicken in egg mixture, then in flour mixture. Coat well and place in frying pan. Fry each side for about 5 minutes or until done. Coating will be slightly dark. Drain on paper towels. Set aside while you make salad.
