PEGGI'S FRIED FROG LEGS image

I've been cleanin' & fryin' frog legs since I could reach high enough on the stove.Well, actually, I used a chair & stood on my knees. The first time my Daddy brought a mess home for me to clean & cook, he never told me that you had to cut the leader behind each knee, so to speak, so they didn't come back to life & start...

Number Of Ingredients 9

cleaned frog legs with the back leader cut
1 c flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp coarse pepper
1 egg
1 c buttermilk
1 stick real butter
2 Tbsp canola oil
california style garlic salt/parsley- add about 3 tablespoons of accent or msg to a container of this ( use on everything)

Steps:

  • 1. Mix egg & buttermilk.
  • 2. Add the frog legs & let set about 15 minutes or so while you get the other stuff ready.
  • 3. Heat butter & canola oil in cast iron skillet on medium high heat until hot. Don't overheat as butter burns easily.
  • 4. Take frog legs from buttermilk mix & dip in flour that salt & pepper have been added to, one at a time & press the flour onto them to stick on there. Lay on waxed paper until all of them are coated.
  • 5. Starting with the first leg you floured, dip in flour again & press & shake of excess & place in ready frying pan. Don't crowd them in pan or they won't brown properly.
  • 6. Turn heat to medium, so they don't burn. You want to brown them slowly.
  • 7. Brown on one side slowly. Turn & sprinkle with the Garlic season. Brown the other side.
  • 8. Transfer onto paper towels to drain. Enjoy!!
