Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup biscuit/baking mix
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • 1. In a shallow bowl, mix the baking mix, salt and pepper. Place crushed croutons and eggs in separate shallow bowls. Dip chicken in baking mix to coat both sides; shake off excess. Dip in eggs, then in croutons, patting to help coating adhere.
