Sauce

½ cup Worcestershire sauce
¼ cup ketchup
2 tablespoons soy sauce
pepper to taste

Chicken

2 cups vegetable oil, for deep-fat frying
½ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup panko bread crumbs
salt and pepper to taste
1 egg, beaten
2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - pounded to 1/4 inch thickness
1 green onion, thinly sliced

Directions

For the sauce, stir together the Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, and soy sauce, and a pinch of pepper to taste. Set aside.
Heat oil in deep-fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Place flour and panko bread crumbs onto separate plates and season with salt and pepper. Place the beaten egg in a medium bowl. Dip flattened chicken pieces first into flour, then egg, and lastly bread crumbs.
Fry breaded chicken breasts in preheated oil until golden brown and no longer pink in center, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Slice chicken into thin strips and top with a drizzle of sauce and a sprinkling of sliced green onions. Serve remaining sauce on the side for dipping.

Smoked Spanish Mackerel Dip

This smoked mackerel dip is delicious! A friend catches Spanish mackerel in South Florida and fillets it for us. He delivers it, and we spend the day smoking 10 pounds of fish. We vacuum pack what we don't need and freeze it for later. It keeps very well for months in a freezer. How long? We don't know, because we make this dip so often! Can't find smoked mackerel? There are YouTube videos that teach you how to smoke your own! Serve with an assortment of crackers, toasts, celery, and carrots.
