Prepare the Chicken
Cut the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into strips, approximately 1 inch wide. Season them with salt and black pepper.

- 2
Set up Breading Station
In three separate shallow bowls, prepare the breading station: In the first bowl, place the all-purpose flour. In the second bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. In the third bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and grated Parmesan cheese.

Bread the Chicken Strips
Dredge each chicken strip in the flour, shaking off any excess. Then dip it into the egg mixture, allowing the excess to drip off. Finally, coat it with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere. Repeat with all chicken strips.

Fry the Chicken Fingers
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded chicken fingers in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to remove the chicken fingers and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
