Introduction

These are really, really bad for you fat-wise, but using Canola oil and draining as much as possible makes them slightly better as a VERY occasional treat.

Number of Servings: 3

Ingredients

    * 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 8 oz each)
    * 1 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
    * 2 cups Canola oil
    * 14 oz. Light or Ultra Light Beer

Directions

* Heat Oil in skillet to medium high heat until a drop of water causes a sizzle.

* Cut breasts into 3 servings worth of chunks -- the size is up to you, but smaller is better for crispiness and cooking time.

* Pour beer into a small bowl, and flour into another small bowl

* Dip each chunk into first the beer, then the flour. Make sure the chunk is well covered with flour

* Put the chunk into the oil, cook until crunchy and toasty brown.
