Rinse frog legs and pat dry; set aside. Combine flour
cornmeal
saltine cracker crumbs
pepper
salt
and onion in a large resealable bag; shake well to mix. Whisk eggs and milk together in a shallow bowl.
Heat vegetable oil and peanut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. The oil should be about 1/2 inch deep.
Dip legs into egg mixture in batches
then press into cracker mixture until evenly coated. Place the breaded legs

onto a plate. Repeat with remaining legs.
Lower breaded legs carefully into the hot oil in batches. Fry until golden brown
about 4 to 5 minutes on each side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with remaining frog legs.
