Another night, another new recipe. I saw this recipe for beer bread on the food network one weekend afternoon. It looked simple (no waiting for yeast to rise, etc) and I knew I'd like to try it. I think it turned out pretty good! I didn't use a favorite lager, instead I just used one that I had. I'm curious how it might taste different depending on the beer I use. I think this would be good with a dip or something more substantial, the butter I put on mine just wasn't enough. Still, definitely worth a try, especially with a favorite beer!

Tonight for dinner I also made some crispy chicken. I had bought cornflakes for a dish this past weekend and I had almost a whole box left. I have seen recipes where crushed up corn flakes are used for a crispy coating instead of frying the chicken.
I cut two extra large chicken breasts in half. I dredged them first in a flour mixture with flour, cayenne pepper, lowry's seasoned sald, and pepper. Then I dipped them in egg, followed by coating them in the crushed up corn flakes. I got a thumbs up from my husband. The chicken was juicy and not dry and the cornflake coating stayed very crunchy! Paired this with my beer bread and a side of asparagus. Overall a pretty healthy and easy weeknight dinner!
