-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 tb Ground black pepper
1/2 c Buttermilk
2 Boneless chicken breasts
- each split in half
4 sl Ham
8 Fresh sage leaves -- -ÿÿ
1 t -Dried Sage
1/2 c Flour
2 c Cooking oil
COMBINE PEPPER AND BUTTERMILK in a bowl or glass pie
dish large enough to hold the chicken in one layer and
set aside. Place the flour on a plate and set aside.
Place a slice of ham under the skin of the chicken and
place 2 sage leaves or some dried sage inside. Place
the breasts in the buttermilk and place in the
refrigerator for 20 minutes. Turn the breasts over and
let sit another 20 minutes. Heat a 1-inch depth of oil
in a heavy skillet to 375F. Oil is hot enough for
frying when a droplet of water bubbles and dances
across the surface. Remove the chicken from the
refrigerator, remove from the marinade and wipe off
excess buttermilk. Dust the breasts on both sides with
flour and place in the hot oil. Cook about 6 minutes,
turn and cook until a golden brown crust forms, about
another 6 to 8 minutes. Remove the breasts and drain
on an absorbent towel. Serve immediately.
