The best part about these recipes is how they bring you back to a time when life was easier, and your favorite foods were always made with love. Fast food is fun again! These recipes allow you to take all of your favorite fast foods and bring them into your own kitchen.
This way you have total control over the ingredients used, and the quality of the food you make. The most important thing to start with is that incredible, crispy fried chicken. It has a secret seasoning combination that makes everyone recognize it as the “fast food” taste we all grew up with. To ensure that the chicken stays tender from the inside, we use a buttermilk marinade, then coat the chicken to get it perfectly golden. Once you figure this process out, you can make long, tender strips of chicken, small popcorn chicken bites, or even wings with a Nashville-Style Hot Sauce finish.
If you’re looking for something a little lighter than traditional fried chicken, we offer a grilled version, and even an oven baked version of our fried chicken that still provides the crunchy outside texture you crave. But as we all know, no meal would be complete without some amazing side dishes. We provide you with the knowledge to create light and fluffy mashed potatoes with a smooth gravy, tangy coleslaw (the type that stays nice and crisp), seasoned potato wedges using the same double fry method used by restaurants, and a variety of other sides such as warm buttery corn, along with many cheese-based options, fresh green beans, and cold/hot salad options to add another element to your meal.
We understand that sometimes you may not feel like making multiple dishes, and that’s why we’ve created a variety of bowl-type meals that combine all of your favorite flavors into one easy-to-eat dish, wrap-style sandwiches that pack a ton of flavor into each bite, and even a golden topped Pot Pie that feels like a big hug. And don’t worry if you need something quick, hand held sandwiches, and slider recipes make creating quick dinners or party food a breeze.
And let’s not forget about the sweet treats! We’ve included a variety of desserts including fruit pies, layered parfaits, rich brownies, and a moist chocolate cake to satisfy your sweet tooth. Each of the recipes in this cookbook have been tested and simplified to help you achieve consistency in your cooking without causing you any stress, and without using any mysterious ingredients.
By cooking these recipes at home instead of purchasing them at a high price through a drive-thru, you’ll be able to save money, and your family will love you for taking the time to make a homemade version of their favorite fast foods.
