Cornbread Chicken




Last Saturday night after reading about the new foods and old favorites that will soon be enjoyed at the State Fair of Texas, I got a hankering (thanks to Taylor Martyn for forwarding the article) for a taste of Texas. I decided, "Man, I really miss a Fletcher's Original Corn Dog. "

I wondered how I could come as close to that as possible over here. We can't get hot dogs over here. Thus, the idea of "Cornbread Chicken" entered into my mind. I thought, "If you can use cornbread batter to fry deep fry a hot dog, why not do the same thing with chicken?" So, I got to searching on www.allrecipes.com for a corn dog recipe, and eventually found what I thought to be a good one. On Sunday evening, I mixed up the batter, cut up some chicken (works best if the chicken is already cooked) and got to frying. It tasted really good, and was maybe as close to the State Fair as I can get for now.

Who knows what I'll try next. Maybe fried Oreos.
