Ingredients

2 cups vegetable oil for frying
6 ounces buttery crackers (such as Town House(R))
1 tablespoon garlic salt
1 (1 ounce) package ranch dressing mix
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs, beaten
2 medium skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into 1-inch pieces

Directions

1

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2

Combine crackers, garlic salt, and ranch dressing mix in a resealable plastic bag; squeeze out excess air and seal the bag. Finely crush crackers with a rolling pin or heavy skillet. Pour 1/3 the crumbs mixture into a large bowl.
3

Pour flour into a bowl. Pour eggs into another bowl.
4

Gently press chicken pieces into flour to coat and shake off excess flour. Dip into beaten egg and press into cracker crumbs. Place the breaded chicken pieces onto a plate while breading the rest.
5

Working in batches, cook breaded chicken in hot oil, turning once, until golden brown, no longer pink in the center, and the juices run clear, about 5 to 7 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
