Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness using a meat mallet. This ensures they cook evenly.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    Prepare three shallow dishes: one with flour, the second with beaten eggs, and the third with bread crumbs mixed with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Coat each chicken breast in flour, shaking off excess. Dip into the egg, allowing excess to drip off, then finally coat with the seasoned bread crumbs. Press crumbs onto the chicken to adhere.

  4. 4

    Fry the Chicken

    Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the chicken from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side.
