Grandma's Secret Trick

Grandma's Secret Trick

The big skillet in Grandma's kitchen was 12 inches wide, so she could cook all the chicken strips at one time. If that skillet was in use, she used her smaller skillet and cooked it in two batches. She added a little more vegetable oil to the skillet between batches if needed.
