Ingredients
You will need 2 large chicken breasts cut into thin fillets.
Prepare 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 2 large eggs, and 1 cup of breadcrumbs (panko is Ψ§ΩΨ£ΩΨΆΩ for extra crispiness).
Add 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and ΩΨ΅Ω Ω
ΩΨΉΩΨ© Ψ΅ΨΊΩΨ±Ψ© onion powder.
You will also need 2 to 3 tablespoons of milk and oil for frying.
Preparation
Start by slicing the chicken breasts into thin pieces. Pat them dry with paper towels to help the coating stick better.
Next, prepare three bowls. In the first bowl, mix the flour with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. In the second bowl, beat the eggs with the milk until smooth. In the third bowl, place the breadcrumbs.
Take each piece of chicken and coat it first in the flour mixture, making sure it is fully covered. Then dip it into the egg mixture, and finally coat it with breadcrumbs. Press gently so the coating sticks well.
Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, fry the chicken fillets for about 3 to 4 minutes on each side until they become golden brown and crispy. Make sure not to overcrowd the pan so they cook evenly.
After frying, place the chicken on paper towels to remove excess oil.
Serving
Serve the chicken hot with fries, salad, or your favorite sauce like ketchup or garlic sauce. A squeeze of lemon on top can also add a fresh and delicious flavor.
Tips
For extra crispiness, you can double coat the chicken by repeating the egg and breadcrumb steps. Using panko breadcrumbs will also give a crunchier texture. Always make sure the oil is hot before frying to get the best result.
