24 frog's legs, skin removed
1 (4 ounce) packet saltine crackers, crushed

1 cup milk
1 1/2 cups flour

  • Dip frog legs in flour covering completely, then into egg mixture and back in flour.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh frog legs. Fresh frog legs should be firm and slightly slimy. Avoid any frog legs that are discolored or have a strong odor.

  • Season the frog legs. Frog legs can be seasoned with a variety of spices, including salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
  • Dredge the frog legs in flour. Dredging the frog legs in flour will help to create a crispy coating.
  • Fry the frog legs in hot oil. Frog legs should be fried in hot oil (350 degrees Fahrenheit) for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Serve the frog legs with your favorite dipping sauce. Frog legs can be served with a variety of dipping sauces, including tartar sauce, ranch dressing, and honey mustard.
