Labor day delights!!!

Over the weekend we had a old friend visit and his son. We have known them for many years it was nice to see them. For the weekend I decided to try some new recipes and man were they good! The first was a buffalo chicken, I cooked chicken nuggets for the kids because this is definitly not kid friendly but oh man I should have made double! Please comment with your review if you try any of these

Buffalo Chicken

4 boneless, skinless, chicken breast halves (5oz each)
-1/4 t. salt-1/4 t. pepper-2 eggs
-1/2 c. seasoned bread crumbs
-3 T. canola oil
-1/4 c. buffalo wing sauce
-1/4 c. shredded provolone cheese =
-1/4 c. shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
Flatten chicken to 1/2 inch thickness
Sprinkle with salt and pepperIn a shallow bowl, whisk eggs
Place bread crumbs in another shallow bowl
Dip chicken in eggs, then coat with bread crumbs
In large skillet over medium heat, cook chicken in oil for 7-10 minutes on each side or until chicken juices run clear, adding wing sauce during the last 2 minutes
Turn to coat chicken (I only coated one side with wing sauce).
Sprinkle with cheeses. Cover and cook until cheese is melted.

The next recipe WOW! literally these guys were begging for more! The reviews were phenomenal and this is hands down the best burger I have ever eaten!!! and Aaron and Jorge agreed!!! This is going on every superbowl, potluck, meal ENJOY!!!
