Chicken strips and cole slaw

     Real chicken strips! How many if you all cannot stand the so-called chicken strips in a lot of restaurants These are the strips that are made from 'mechanically separated chicken'. In other words it is made from chicken scraps. I used organic chicken breast and slicked them longitudinal. I dipped them in egg wash, than flour and dipped again in egg wash and finally in panko crumbs mix. he mix had oregano, salt, pepper, paprika, and panko crumbs. I fried them in the fry daddy for about 5 minutes until internal temp was greater than 165 deg.

   The cole slaw was made using homemade mayonnaise  I used grape seed oil and an egg yolk. Using an immersion blender, I slowly added grape seed oil to the yolk until it fluffed up. I added lime juice, slat and pepper to it and let it sit for an hour. In the meantime, I cut the cabbage and salted it to remove the moisture. I cut julienne carrots and crushed pickles. I rinsed and dried the cabbage and added the mayonnaise and vegetables.  I also added salt, pepper, and vinegar until it tasted great.  Kim and Logan loved them--Logan dipped the strips in ketchup.
