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

I thought these were really good. My husband said they were okay. I used seasoned salt instead of the salt and pepper. Other than that I basically followed the recipe. I will probably make these again.
