- 1 tsp paprika

Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
In a shallow dish, mix together the garlic powder, ground black pepper, salt, paprika, seasoned bread crumbs, and all-purpose flour until well combined.
-
Step 2.
In a separate shallow dish, whisk together the milk and egg until smooth.
-
Step 3.
Heat about 1 cup of oil in an electric skillet set to 350°F (175°C). If using a regular skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
-
Step 4.
Dip each pounded chicken breast half first into the milk-egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off, then dredge in the dry mixture, pressing lightly to coat evenly on both sides.
-
Step 5.
Carefully place the coated chicken pieces into the hot oil. Fry for about 5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F). The juices should run clear when pierced.
-
Step 6.
Remove the chicken from the oil using a slotted spatula and drain on paper towels. Serve immediately.
