    Spicy Chicken with Quick Asian Pickled Salad

    For a quick dinner before my trip to Kansas, Matt and I made a quick dinner from some easy recipes we’ve made before. A light breading made for some crisp, spicy chicken. And our favorite quick Asian-style refrigerator pickles makes a delicious salad as a base. Just season the chicken (we used thin, tender-like pieces) with salt, pepper, and a little bit of cayenne, and dredge in enough flour to coat. Cook in 3 Tbsp of olive oil until crisp and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes. Serve with the quick pickles and it’s a delicious dinner in no time – even the night before a big flight!
