CRISPY CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• Prep Work: Whisk 1 egg in a small bowl and set aside.
• Combine the flour, breadcrumbs, and seasonings on a plate and set aside.
• Cut the chicken breast in half to create 2 thinner pieces of equal size. Slice each half into strips about ½ inch thick. Note that they will plump up slightly when cooked.
• Bread the Chicken: Pat the strips completely dry and dip them in the whisked egg. Use your fingers to slide off the excess, if it's too wet it will leak through the breading. Transfer to the breading mixture and coat generously. Give each one an extra dip in the breading right before frying.
• Frying: Heat 1 cup of vegetable oil in a 10-inch cast iron skillet. If possible, use an oil thermometer to wait until the oil reaches 350 degrees.
• Once the oil is heated, carefully add the chicken strips, leaving space around each one so that they don't touch each other. You'll need to fry in batches. Use kitchen tongs to carefully turn the chicken over once the first side is golden brown, 3-4 minutes per side.
• Set fried chicken aside on a cooling rack to keep it crispy underneath. Add more chicken to the pan as soon as you take some out.
• Submerge the eggs in 2 inches of cool water in a pot on the stove-top. Gradually bring them to a boil.
• Once the boil is reached, cover the pot and remove them from the heat. Let them sit for 12 minutes.
• Peel, and slice in half or in fourths.
• Add the lettuce to a large plate or salad bowl. Top with tomatoes, hard boiled eggs, and cheese.
• Slice the chicken strips into bite-sized pieces and sprinkle them on top.
• Drizzle with honey mustard, top with tortilla strips, and serve!
