  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs, beaten lightly
  • 2 cups Simply Suzanne Original Granola, crushed
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons chopped, fresh parsley
  • 2 teaspoons chopped, fresh rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
  • 8 tablespoons of canola oil

Directions:
  1. Beat the eggs with a splash of water and place in a shallow bowl. Set aside
  2. Measure out the flour and place in a second shallow bowl. Set aside.
  3. In a large sealed bag, place the Simply Suzanne Original Granola, crush with a heavy coffee cup, rolling pin, or mallet. Add the garlic and herbs. Shake to mix well. Pour into a third shallow bowl.
  4. Salt and pepper the chicken tenders on both sides
  5. Starting with the flour, dip the chicken in, coating it completely. Second, dip the chicken in the egg, and then finally, the Simply Suzanne breadcrumb mixture. Repeat this process until all of the chicken is coated.

  7. When the oil is hot, place 3-5 pieces of chicken in the hot oil, cooking for about 4-6 minutes per side, depending on thickness of chicken strips until cooked through.
