Take chicken breast and lay between some ceran wrap or in a large gallon baggie and hammer away with a kitchen mallet
Once chicken is thinned, dredge in the flour starter to coat with a thin layer of flour and shake off excess.
Now lay each side of the chicken breasts into the egg/buttermilk bath.
After the egg bath you can lay and flip the chicken so that each side is generously coated in the Breading mixture.
Lay the chicken in a large frying pan with hot (med-high) grapeseed oil. Brown each side of the chicken and set on top of a metal cookie rack cooler that is resting on a cookie sheet and bake for about 25 min or until completely cooked through.
Serve with the marion berry sauce on the side
I also liked the berry sauce on top of greens with gorgonzola and yes, some walnut would be lovely tossed in the mix as well!!
