Шаг за шагом

  1. 1

    Pat the frog legs dry thoroughly with paper towels.

  2. 2

    In a shallow dish, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, and black pepper.

    Около 1 мин

  3. 3

    Dredge each frog leg in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess.

    Около 3 мин

  5. 5

    Add the floured frog legs to the hot skillet in a single layer, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.

  6. 6

    Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

    Once the butter is melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

    Около 1 мин
