Crazy Clayton even taught himself to do a flip off the diving board! This is coming from a kid that could barely jump off it a few weeks ago. He turned into a crazy man and must have gone off the diving board 45 times - each with a new twist - a dive, a flip, a cartwheel, a twisting flip. He was a maniac!
We also tried a new chicken recipe that night and it was a hit with kids and adults alike!
Chick-fil-A Bites with Honey
Mustard Dipping Sauce
Serves 2 - 3
Directions:
2 large chicken breasts,
cut into bite-sized pieces and seasoned with salt & pepper
3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup pickle juice
(dill)
1 egg
1 1/4 cups flour
2 Tablespoons powdered
sugar
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup peanut oil,
divided (or canola or vegetable oil)
Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce:
1/2 cup plain greek yogurt
1 1/2 Tablespoons yellow
mustard
1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 Tablespoons honey
Directions:
1. Whisk together egg,
milk and pickle juice, and pour into a large ziplock bag or bowl. Add chicken
pieces and marinate in the refrigerator for 2-4 hours.
2. Combine flour, powdered
sugar, salt and pepper in a large ziplock bag. Shake to combine. Remove chicken
from the marinade and add into the bag. Shake to coat the chicken completely.
3. Heat half the oil in a
large skillet or dutch oven over medium-high heat (6 or 7 out of 10.) Test the
oil by dropping in a bit of the flour mixture. If it sizzles, the oil is ready,
if it pops, lower the temperature a bit.
4. Gently place chicken
pieces into the oil with tongs. Do this in 2 batches, as you don’t want to
overcrowd the pan. Cook the chicken for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown on
one side. Turn the chicken over and allow to cook for 3-4 more minutes. Remove
to a paper-towel lined plate. Heat the remaining oil and continue with the
other half of the chicken pieces.
5. Stir together the honey
mustard dipping sauce ingredients, and serve with the hot chicken bites.
