I love getting my kids involved when I’m preparing meals or planning my menus.
I was talking with them about this dish that I wanted to create. My Crispy Chicken bowl is a play off of the popular KFC Famous chicken bowl.
My teenager loves spicy chips. She had a bag of funyuns and wanted to make spicy chicken nuggets instead of the regular crispy chicken. I was like cool deal, let’s try it.
These bowls turned out great. Here is what you need:
