Fried Curry Chicken

INGREDIENTS

* 1 1/2 cups plain yogurt
* 3 tablespoons lemon juice
* 3/4 teaspoon curry powder
* 3/4 teaspoon onion powder
* 3/4 teaspoon salt
* 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
* 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into 1 inch strips
* 3/4 cup dry bread crumbs
* 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
* 1/2 cup unsalted butter

DIRECTIONS

1. In a large bowl, mix the yogurt, lemon juice, curry powder, onion powder, salt, and garlic powder. Set aside 1 cup of the mixture to use as a dipping sauce. Place the chicken in the bowl, and coat with the mixture. Marinate in the refrigerator 8 hours or overnight.
2. In a bowl, mix the breadcrumbs and flour. Dredge the coated chicken in the breadcrumb mixture.
3. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium-low heat. Discard remaining yogurt mixture. Fry the coated chicken in the skillet 15 minutes, or until juices run clear. Serve with the reserved dipping sauce.
