Jancey's Cooking Corner: Cheese-Its Chicken Strips

English: Fried Chicken strips. (Photo credit: Wikipedi

     My daughter found the picture for this recipe somewhere on the internet and forwarded it to me with the plea, "Mom, can we make this when I come home?" It's hard to say no when it comes to cooking and trying new dishes.
    This was interesting for a few reasons. I have never used sour cream as a coating agent before. Mayonnaise was an experiment once, but not sour cream. It coated the chicken very well.
   It was also interesting because this is very similar to how I make Grippo's chicken strips. This recipe uses Cheese-Its, which now come in an assortment of flavors. We tried the chipotle flavor and thought it was great, but any flavor will work.
