KFC Twister and KFC Twister Sauce

These are wonderful! I think the special sauce you make with may really makes them taste like something you bought rather than made. I was really impressed with these and recommend using thin strips of chicken. My first batch were a little too big. You should try them! They are delish!

3 tablespoons plain flour

1 1/2 teaspoons ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons salt

1 teaspoon onion powder
12 boneless, skinless chicken breast tenders
Olive oil spray

1 egg white
1/4 cup fat-free milk
1 1/2 cup bread crumbs
6 burrito-size (10-inch) low-fat flour tortilla
1 tablespoon KFC Twister Sauce (recipe below)
Shredded iceberg lettuce
2 Diced tomatoes

In a resealable plastic bag, combine flour, pepper, salt and onion powder. Shake to mix well. Add chicken. Shake to completely coat the chicken with the flour mixture. Refrigerate at least 10 minutes.

Preheat oven to 250 degrees

Lightly mist a nonstick baking sheet with oil spray.

In a small bowl, combine egg white and milk. Beat with a fork until smooth. Place breadcrumbs in a shallow dish.

Dip one of the chicken tenders into the egg-white mixture, being sure to coat completely. Allow any excess egg white mixture to drip off. Dip into the crumbs to coat completely. Repeat dipping a second time into the egg white mixture and the crumbs. Place on the reserved baking sheet. Continue with the second piece of chicken. Place, not touching, on the baking sheet. Lightly mist both sides with oil spray. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Bake 5 minutes. Carefully flip the chicken. Bake 4 to 6 minutes, or until the breading starts to crisp, and the chicken is no longer pink inside.

Meanwhile, preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place the tortilla in the skillet. Heat for 1 to 2 minutes per side, or until warm.

Top the sauce-covered area evenly with the lettuce, tomato and chicken. Fold the bare end over the filling ingredients. Roll the tortilla tightly, finishing it seam-side down on the plate. One end of the wrap will remain open.

breakfast casserole

I make this all the time now! I will put the ingredients together on a friday night and it is ready to pop in the oven Saturday morning. My favorite way to make it is with jalapeƱo cheddar bread from the walmart bakery. It just has more zip with the bread. It is yummy! You should try it!













Breakfast Casserole
9 eggs
1.5 cup half and half
5 green onions, chopped
Salt and pepper
Butter to grease pan
6 slices of garlic Texas Toast (frozen)
1 pound spicy pork sausage, cooked and drained of fat, bacon, or and ham
1 cup grated Cheddar cheese


In a small bowl, beat the eggs until they loosen up. Add the half and half, and green onions. Mix well, highly season with salt and pepper and set aside.

Butter a 12 by 10-inch baking pan. Line the pan with the bread, cutting and rearranging, if needed. Sprinkle the bread with the cooked sausage and cheese. Pour the egg mixture over the entire pan. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cook covered for 25 to 30 minutes or until the egg mixture is set.
