Fried Chicken Strips with Bread Crumbs

Fried Chicken Strips
Prepared a simple three cuisines home cooked lunch today. Simple yet yummy. The first cuisine was the fried chicken strips with bread crumbs. The bread crumbs that I used for this cuisine is the Kinkoman Panko brand that I bought from Costco Wholesale. I marinated the chicken strips with some hoisin sauce and then coated with egg white before coating each chicken strips with another layer of bread crumbs. Once the chicken strips was coated with the bread crumb, fried them in a pot of hot cooking oil. The fried chicken strips taste better when they were still warm. So we ate them all during lunch with two other cuisines and a plate of steam rice.

Traditional Penang Ju Who Char
The second cuisine was the traditional stir fried dried squid jicama cuisine which we call the cuisine for all occasions. This cuisine is seen in all kinds of celebrations in Penang such as weddings, birthdays, funerals, religious worships, and all occasions that involves food. This cuisine is as synonymous to Penang cuisines as Char Keow Teow and Water Spinach with preserved squid. I did not cook this dried squid jicama cuisine but was given to us by a friend that have home cooked it the previous day. And, usually we dine with this dried squid jicama cuisine over several days. One of the methods to eating this cuisine is to wrap it in lettuce.

Pan Fried Salmon Fillet
Finally, the third cuisine was another simple fish cuisine. I bought a few pieces of salmon fillet from Save-On-Foods a couple of days ago when it went on sale. So, instead of just salmon fillet for dinner or lunch, I stored them in the freezer for cooking later. Today, I fried a whole piece of salmon fillet with butter as a dish for lunch. While the fillet was still in the pan, I sprinkled it with some salt and black pepper. Once the fillet was done, garnished with a sprinkle of dried cilantro flakes. Although simple, the salmon fillet was flavourful and tasty. I could taste the butter and pepper in the fillet. The salmon fillet was not only a simple process to cook but the recipe was even simpler. Yet, tasted really delicious.
