Ingredients
For the Chicken:
- 3 chicken breasts
- 2 sleeves of Ritz crackers
- 2 eggs
- 2 tablespoons of salted butter
- 2 tablespoons of oil
For the Gravy:
- 1 cup of whole milk
- 1/2 cup of half and half
- 2 tablespoons of salted butter
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons of flour
- 2 tablespoons of corn starch
- 2 chicken bouillon cubes
Instructions
For the Chicken:
- Grab 2 sleeves of Ritz crackers and crush them into large crumbs. Put the crumbs into a large bowl.
- Crack your 2 eggs in a bowl and whisk them.
- Heat a large pan on the stove on medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of salted butter and 2 tablespoons of oil.
- Cut the 3 chicken breasts into a few pieces (about 4 per breast). You may want to flatten the thicker parts to make them more even.
- Dip the chicken pieces into the egg mixture, and then firmly press them into the Ritz cracker crumbs on each side. Set each piece aside until they are all ready.
- Make sure the oil and butter are well mixed in the pan and add the chicken. Cook until the chicken is golden, about 5-7 minutes per side.
For the Gravy:
- Set a medium sized pan on medium-low heat and add 1/2 a cup half and half, 2 tablespoons of butter, and salt and pepper to taste. Crumble in the 2 chicken bouillon cubes and give it a stir.
- While the butter is melting, grab a separate bowl and add in 1 cup of milk, 2 tablespoons of flour, and 2 tablespoons of corn starch. Use a fork and mix it together until no clumps remain. Slowing pour the mixture into the pan, stirring as you go.
- Once the gravy has thickened up, turn off the heat and transfer it a blender. Blend until smooth and then transfer back to the pan with the heat still off and cover until ready to serve.
