Tips:

  • For a crispy coating, make sure the chicken is evenly coated in the flour mixture before dipping it in the egg wash and breadcrumbs.
  • Use a deep fryer or a large skillet with at least 2 inches of oil to fry the chicken. This will help to ensure that the chicken cooks evenly and doesn't stick to the pan.
  • Fry the chicken in batches so that it doesn't overcrowd the pan. This will also help to prevent the chicken from sticking together.
  • Cook the chicken until it is golden brown and crispy. This should take about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Drain the chicken on a paper towel-lined plate to remove any excess oil.
  • Serve the chicken immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
