This recipe offers a delightful twist on fried chicken, paired with a creamy cilantro dip for a flavor-packed meal.
Blend the cilantro, garlic, lime juice, and olive oil until smooth.
Adding a touch of olive oil helps emulsify the dip, making it smoother.
Mix the blended mixture with mayonnaise in a bowl. Chill until serving.
Chilling the dip enhances the flavors, making it more vibrant.
Combine flour, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl.
Mixing the dry ingredients thoroughly ensures even seasoning.
Beat the eggs in another shallow bowl.
Beating the eggs well helps coat the chicken evenly.
Place the crushed crackers in a third shallow bowl.
Using crushed crackers adds a unique crunch to the coating.
Coat each chicken breast in the flour mixture, then the eggs, and finally the crackers.
Press the crackers onto the chicken to ensure they stick well.
Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Ensure the oil is hot before adding the chicken to prevent sticking.
Cook the chicken in the skillet until golden and cooked through, about 5 minutes per side.
Avoid overcrowding the skillet to maintain the oil temperature.
Serve the crispy chicken with the chilled cilantro dip.
Garnish with extra cilantro for a fresh touch.
