Directions for: Popcorn Chicken Dinner

Ingredients

Vegetable oil, for frying

1 cup flour

1 Tbsp cornstarch

1 pinch each salt and pepper

4 eggs

4 cups caramel popcorn, crushed/chopped

2 cups breadcrumbs

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed into bite-sized pieces

Hot sauce

4 strips bacon, cooked/crumbled

Directions

1. Preheat oil to 425F (218C) in a medium pot. Preheat oven to 350F (175C).

2. In one bowl mix together flour, cornstarch, and salt and pepper. In another, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, combine the popcorn and breadcrumbs. Properly cover each piece of chicken with flour mix, tapping off any excess. Then place into the egg, and finally into the popcorn/breadcrumb mix.

3. Deep-fry a couple of pieces at a time until chicken is a light golden colour. Place them all on a lined baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes.

4. Remove and place in a bowl. Drizzle and toss the popcorn chicken with your favourite hot sauce, and crumbled bacon. Serve in a bowl and top with more hot sauce, crushed popcorn, and bacon.
