A new chapter begins as the last chapter closes. Come take a peek at the home my dad built for my mom in 1968. With love and cherished memories I say farewell.

My mom used to make what she called flatzy chicke

My mom used to make what she called flatzy chicken all the time. It was deep fried to a golden brown and absolutely delicious l. I decided to put a twist on it and air fry it (for a healthier version). Recipe below enjoy!

2 large chicken breast, butterflied, cut each piece in h half and pound to 1/2 inch thickness
Season each piece with sea salt and garlic powder on each side.

Dipping station :

Bowl 1 - AP flour
Bowl 2 - 2 x large beaten eggs
Bowl 3 - 1 cup coarse panko crumbs + 1 cup corn flake crumbs
Avocado oil spray

Preheat air fryer for 5 minutes @ 375F
Dip chicken pieces into flour, then egg and finally the. crumbs
Place two pieces of breast into the air fryer, spray with oil and cook for 7 minutes.
Flip, spray and cook for another 3 minutes

Remove and repeat with remaining chicken. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Had to jump on the #viral #ricecake bandwagon and boy were these ever GOOD.

Only 4 ingredients and I used these cute little @theskinnypop sea salt rice cakes - topped them with organic #peanutbutter, homemade strawberry jam then dipped in melted dark chocolate with a sprinkle of fleur de sel. Chill and enjoy!
