Jazz Scimmage

Last Saturday we went to the Jazz Scrimmage. It was fun to watch them play against each other and see the new talent we have on our team. Since they just recently changed the logo and colors of the Jazz. They unveiled the new floor at the beginning of the scrimmage. We sat pretty close to the floor and I know we'll never be this close during an actual game. Sitting that close you can actually see all the little things they do and hear what they say to each other during the game. It's crazy how tall the players actually are. They don't seem that tall on TV. It is definitely different and better in person. I'm excited for this season and hope our Jazz does well.

Here's a video of the unveiling of the floor:

And here are some Pictures:

Southern Fried Chicken Strips

There's a first for everything and this is the first time I'm sharing a recipe. Exciting huh? I got this from my little sister. I have made it a couple of times and think it's about time I start sharing recipes of some of the yummy things I make.

Southern Fried Chicken Strips

1 egg
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 cup all-purpose flour
1-1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1-1/2 tsp. pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp paprika
2 lbs chicken tenderloins or chicken breast cut in strips
Oil for Deep-fat Frying
2 Tbsp. Grated Parmesan Cheese (Optional)

In a shallow bowl, whisk egg and buttermilk. In a separate shallow bowl, combine the flour, garlic, powder, pepper, salt and paprika. Dip chicken in egg mixture then flour mixture.

In an electric skillet or frying pan heat oil to 375 degrees. Fry chicken a few pieces at a time for 2-3 minutes on each side or until no longer pink. Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with Parmesan Cheese.

Enjoy!
