Easy alternative
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

Try soaking the chicken in buttermilk for shorter period of time. Mix equal amounts of panko crumbs and floor. Take chicken... out of buttermilk and roll in crumb mixture and fry. For added flavor you can also add grated parm cheese to crumb mixture +/- seasonings of your choice. Read more

Not worth the effort
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

With so many chicken recipes out there to try, this recipe was put in the trash. We ate the meal and it was fine (but my... 5-year old spit it out), but not at all worth the cutting, marinating, breading and cooking. It was easy but also not worth the cost of the ingredients. For those who do love it, I would suggest skipping the butter and just spraying the chicken with pan spray before cooking to get the cruncy outside. I'd save the fat and skip that butter step - especially because only the bottoms got browned and the tops were soggy-ish. Bummer.Read more

Simple, yet supberb
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

We LOVED this recipe. Well, my husband and I did, our 4 yr old who has never eaten anything he doesn't like did not care for... it. I had doubts that such a simple recipe would be flavorful, but it was! I did substitute flour/corn meal for the bread crumbs because I was out. Fantastic recipe! Will be making this a LOT.Read more

Something Missing...
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

I'm not sure why this recipe wasn't good. I think it needs more detail or clarification on what to use. It came out mushy,... and the taste was poor. The chicken was moist, but that's about it. If there was more detail on how Paula made her chicken crispy, particular breading used, it could help out.Read more

ok...
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

I was disappointed in the sesame strips. They had no flavor even after adding the butter. they were easy to fix so that was... a plus. Other than that....my family was disappointed in the taste.Read more
