Frying the Chicken

1. Prepare the Chicken

Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Set aside.

2. Set Up Breading Station

In three separate bowls, place flour in the first, beaten eggs in the second, and breadcrumbs in the third.

3. Bread the Chicken

Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dip in beaten eggs, and coat with breadcrumbs. Ensure an even coating.

In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Fry the breaded chicken breasts for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.
