Tip

Batter and Breading

I use my batter and breading on fish, but it tastes great on chicken strips and onion rings, too. —Kathy Benson, Greeley, Colorado

The recipe should have been published with 4-1/2 teaspoons sherry or broth and will be updated soon.

There's no way 1 1/2 tsp. sherry or broth will stir smoothly into 1/4 c. cornstarch! I'll try a little more liquid. Wish me luck!

I made these for a party for a friend coming home from Iraq. Everyone loved them! They were easy to make and tasted awesome!
