recipe Dinner Recipe: Fried Chicken Sandwiches with Waffle Fries
Servings: 4
Food Network ~ Step by Step

Cooking homemade fried chicken for sandwiches is a whole lot easier (and quicker) than you might think. Skinless, boneless chicken thighs become extra juicy after being coated in hot-sauce-spiked buttermilk and dredged in cake flour before being fried until golden and crispy.
Recipe by: Food Network Magazine

    Ingredients:
  • 1/3 cup buttermilk
  • 1 tablespoon habanero hot sauce
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken thighs (about 1 1/4 pounds total)
  • 1 22-ounce bag frozen waffle fries
  • 1 cup cake flour (see Cook's Note for substitute)
  • Vegetable oil, for frying
  • 4 potato rolls, split
  • Iceberg lettuce and dill pickle slices, for topping

  • Preparation Instructions:
  • Whisk the buttermilk, hot sauce, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl. Transfer 3 tablespoons of the buttermilk mixture to a small bowl and whisk in the mayonnaise; set aside. Add the chicken thighs to the bowl with the remaining buttermilk mixture; toss to coat and set aside.
  • Bake the waffle fries as the label directs. Meanwhile, combine the cake flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a shallow dish. Heat 1/2 inch vegetable oil in a large Dutch oven or pot over medium-high heat. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture and shake off the excess. Fry until golden and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a rack set over a baking sheet to drain.
  • Season the waffle fries with pepper. Divide the buttermilk mayonnaise among the roll bottoms. Top with lettuce, the chicken, pickles and the roll tops; serve with the waffle fries.

  • Cook’s Note:
    If you don't have any cake flour on hand, you can combine 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour with 2 tablespoons cornstarch, then sift a few times.


recipe Dessert Recipe: Strawberry Pretzel Pie
Servings: 16
Taste of Home ~ Step by Step

This cool no-bake strawberry pie is the perfect cure for your sweet tooth, especially in summer. Made with pantry staples, it is as easy as pie to make and has become one of my most requested warm-weather treats.
Recipe by: Shauna Havey ~ Roy, Utah
    Ingredients:
  • 4 cups miniature pretzels
  • 6 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 3/4 cup boiling water
  • 1 package (6 ounces) strawberry gelatin
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled, divided
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream, divided
  • 1 jar (7 ounces) marshmallow creme
  • 2/3 cup whipped cream cheese
  • 2/3 cup sweetened condensed milk

  • Preparation Instructions:
  • Place pretzels in a food processor; pulse until chopped. Add butter and sugar; pulse until combined. Reserve 1/3 cup pretzel mixture for topping. Press remaining mixture onto bottom of a greased 9-in. springform pan. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a bowl, add boiling water to gelatin; stir 2 minutes or until completely dissolved. Stir in lemon juice. Refrigerate 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Chop half the strawberries; slice remaining berries and reserve for topping. In a large bowl, beat 1 cup heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Beat marshmallow creme, cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk into cooled gelatin mixture until blended. Gently fold in chopped strawberries and whipped cream. Pour into crust.
  • Refrigerate, covered, until firm, 4-6 hours. Beat remaining 1 cup heavy cream until stiff peaks form; spread over pie. Top with reserved strawberries and pretzel mixture.
