Leftover Buttermilk Marinated Thin Sliced Chicken Breasts w/ Long Grain/Wild Rice and Tossed Salad

Today’s Menu: Leftover Buttermilk Marinated Thin Sliced Chicken Breasts w/ Long Grain/Wild Rice and Tossed Salad

Toasted a Thomas light English Muffin, Scrambled an Egg, heated up a Johnsonville Turkey Breakfast Sausage Link and had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea to start the day. Another cold morning out there, with a wind chill at 22 degrees! For the day it’s mostly sunny and we had a high of 43 degrees, but the wind chill kept it in the 20’s. After Lunch I went to Walmart and bought a couple of bags of Salt for the driveway in case we get snow Thursday. Right now they say about 2″ but we could get as high as 6″ depending on how the storm comes through. For Dinner tonight I heated up the Leftover Buttermilk Marinated Thin Sliced Chicken Breasts w/ Long Grain/Wild Rice and Tossed Salad. That Dinner last night was so good I just reheated all the Leftovers. It was just as good as the night before! I’ve left last night’s post below for instructions and description. Take Care and Stay Safe out there!

For the Chicken; I started at Noon today. I grabbed a large Hefty Bag and added a 1/2 Pint of Buttermilk to the bag. I then added several shakes of Frank’s Hot Sauce to it and shook the bag to blend it together. I then added my Chicken Breasts and let it Marinate in the fridge until it was time to use. I used my favorite, Katie’s Best Chicken.

To prepare the Thin Sliced Chicken Breast I grabbed a Cast Iron Skillet. Sprayed with a coat of Pam Non Stick Cooking Spray. Then I started heating the skillet on medium heat. Next I added a tablespoon and a half of Olive Oil Cooking Oil. As the skillet heated I got the Chicken out of the fridge and removed it from the bag of Marinade, shaking off the excess. Then I grabbed a pie pan and added Flour to it and seasoned the Flour with Paprika. Took the Chicken Breast and rolled them in the Seasoned Flour until well covered.

Added the Chicken Breasts to the heated Skillet. I cooked the Chicken for 4 minutes and then flipped them over and cooked them for 4 more minutes, until golden brown and the meat thermometer read 165 degrees. The Chicken turned out delicious! Cooked up perfect, nice crust, and love the seasoning! Served it with Kraft Hickory Smoked BBQ Sauce for dipping.

For one side I prepared a packet of Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice Long Grain and Wild. It comes in a microwavable bag. I microwaved it for 90 seconds and done! I guess my favorite among the Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice, all though I love using them all. An easy to fix item, just microwave for 90 seconds and it’s ready. I love Rice and it pairs perfectly with many Dishes.

I also had a Tossed Salad. I had a bag of Dole Greener Selection Salad. For the Salad Dressing I used Kraft Fat Free Classic Catalina Dressing along with a sprinkle of Oscar Mayer Real Bacon Pieces. For Dessert/Snack later a bowl of Skinny Pop – Pop Corn with a Coke Zero to drink.
