Chicken Poppers

I don't make a lot of fried foods, but these are really good and one of our family's favorites. It was actually Sam's request for his first day of school special dinner. I always make extras because they are delicious leftover, even to eat cold out of the fridge.

Ingredients:
About 30 vanilla wafers, crushed finely
1 1/2 tsp seasoned salt
3/4 ground red pepper
1/2 tsp pepper
1 1/3 cup flour, divided
1/4 cup milk
1 egg
5-6 chicken breasts, cut into small pieces (boneless/skinless chicken tenders work great)
1 cup oil
Ranch dressing

1. Stir together first 4 ingredients and 1 cup of flour
2. Stir together milk and egg
3. Dredge chicken pieces in remaining 1/3 cup of flour, dip in egg mixture, dredge in wafer mixture
4. Pour oil in skillet. Heat to 375
5. Fry on each side until done and browned on outside
6. Drain on paper towels
7. Serve with ranch dressing
