Mac Lethal's Non-Homophobic Chicken Sandwiches( Chick-Fil-A copycat)

2 CHICKEN BREASTS HALVED PEANUT OIL
1 TABLESPOON OF HONEY BUTTER
1 TABLESPOON OF MALTED MILK POWDER
1 TABLESPOON OF ICING SUGAR
1 EGG
1 HALF CUP OF MILK
1 HALF CUP OF WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR
1 HALF CUP OF ALL PURPOSE FLOUR
1 TEASPOON OF DRY MUSTARD
1 HALF TEASPOON OF PAPRIKA
1 HALF TEASPOON OF BAKING SODA
WHITE VINEGAR TO SOAK PICKLES
LOTS OF PICKLE JUICE
1 TABLESPOON OF RICK SANTOUROM'S BLOOD WHOLE WHEAT BUNS MEDITERRANEAN SEA SALT BLACK GROUND PEPPER (FRESH)

Instructions: Soak chicken breasts in pickle juice for 30-45 minutes Rub with paprika, salt and pepper

In one bowl mix the milk, egg and a little water In another bowl mix the icing sugar, dry mustard, malted milk powder, flour, baking soda, salt and pepper as desired (I use about a tablespoon each, but adjust as you like)

Heat up PEANUT OIL in Dutch Oven to 325 degrees. DO NOT GO LESS OR MORE THAN 325 DEGREES. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT. It MUST be at 325 degrees. Use a thermometer to ensure this happens.

Take chicken breasts, dip and turn in egg mixture. Then dip and turn in powder mixture. Make it nice and coated. Really roll that bitch around in there so it's covered in sticky, adhesive fry mixture.

Fry in 2-3 inch high peanut oil for 5 minutes. Wait til nice and golden brown and yummy.

Toast wheat bun on honey butter until a lil crispy. Place fried chicken breast and a few pickles you soaked in white vinegar on. Enjoy!

(I add more bacon, a fuckload more kale, more garlic, and a lot more black pepper)

Olive Garden's Zuppa Toscana:

1 lb Italian sausage
2 large russet baking potatoes, sliced in half, and then in 1/4 inch slices
1 large onion, chopped
1/4 cup bacon, cooked and crumbled
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups kale or 2 cups swiss chard, chopped
2 (8 ounce) cans/cups chicken broth
1 quart (4 cups) water
1 cup heavy whipping cream

Chop or slice uncooked sausage into small pieces.
Brown sausage in your soup pot and remove, set aside.
Saute onions in remaining sausage fat until soft.
Add chicken broth, water, potatoes and garlic to pot and stir.
Cook on medium heat until potatoes are done.
Add sausage, bacon and kale.
Simmer for another 10 minutes.
Turn to low heat.
Add cream.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Heat through and serve.

I once tried to make Sweet & sour chicken, want to know what it tasted like? Corn. Fucking corn. The entire thing was god damn awful. I didn't even use corn oil or flour. I think I should have added some MSG, but I don't feel like cooking that shit again, I'll just pay the $14 for the chinese buffet.

I actually tried something like this the other day, it's really the pickle juice that does it

I make my own burrito bowls. For the chicken I just by cans of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, puree in my food processor, and let the chicken thighs marinate in it for 24 hours. Bake them (I think at 400F for 45 minutes), strip the meat off. Mix with black beans, sauteed peppers and onions, and pico de gallo. Save the bones for stock.

For sure. I like to let mine soak overnight in the juice. Also I can usually get 4 sadwiches out of a breast as opposed to the 2 the recipe says.

I'd rather just buy them at Chick-Fil-A if I'm craving that kind of junk food. Putting in the time in the kitchen needs to be worth it personally, and copycat fast food isn't worth it

Is this the same recipe as this? If not, can someone compare and contrast them?

[Anonymous No.5189019]

I made big macs (with mac sauce of course). they were fucking fantastic, the sauce recipe is online somewhere. just salt and pepper in the patties, lettuce and cheese and a sesame seed bun, with home fries

Nice job.
You nailed the presentation, whether it's a good thing or not.

Why are you implying homophobia is a bad thing?

Chick-Fil-A is one of the only companies still protecting American values.

i know but i needed a bu big enough that I could cut it into three slices. The plus was that it was a crusty roll, not the sugar filled bs from McD's

REQUESTING CHILI'S SALSA RECIPE!

Every copycat version on the web is garbage :C

It's velveeta and hormel spicy chili with a bit of added cumin. There's nothing special about it.

I bet you say that to all the girls! ^_^

The top recipe uses wheat flour and white flour. It also adds mustard powder to the dry mix.

The bottom recipe uses a couple more spices (oregano, onion powder, garlic powder.)

The bottom recipe also just mixes all the dry ingredients into the flour mixture, while the top recipe says to put paprika, salt, and pepper directly on the chicken breast.

And honestly, the most important thing about the recipe is soaking it in pickle juice. Overnight is better but not needed.
