Instructions

Scones

  • Mix the dough in a stand mixer or by hand until well incorporated. The dough will be kind of crumbly.
  • Add flour to your counter and knead by hand, adding a tablespoon of water at a time until the dough is soft.
  • Let the dough rest for about a half an hour or so.
  • Roll out the dough and cut it into large squares.
  • Take one large square and stretch it out with your fingers.
  • Heat 1-2 inches of oil over medium heat for 5 minutes before you start frying.
  • Test that the oil is hot enough by putting a small piece of dough in the oil. If it starts to bubble around the dough right away, it is hot enough to fry your scones.
  • DO NOT use high heat!
  • The oil will get too hot and the scones will burn on the outsides before they cook through the middle.
  • Let each scone fry until light brown, flip it over to the other side and let that brown.
  • Use tongs to remove the scones from the oil and allow them to sit on a paper towel to drain the oil.

Tacos

  • Take one of the large scones and top with a generous helping of the White Chicken Chili.
  • Add all of your other favorite toppings. I love lettuce, cheese, tomatoes and avocados….yum!
