In a large skillet or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

Bread Chicken
Remove chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture, ensuring it is fully coated.

Fry Chicken
Carefully place the breaded chicken breasts in the hot oil. Fry for 6-8 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).

While the chicken is frying, in a separate batch, add the dried fries to the hot oil. Fry for 5-7 minutes or until golden and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
