Chicken Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Chicken
Start by tenderizing the chicken breasts to an even thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin. This helps them cook evenly.

Set Up Breading Station
In three separate shallow dishes, set up your breading station. Place the flour mixed with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika in the first dish. In the second dish, beat the eggs. In the third dish, place the panko breadcrumbs.

Bread the Chicken
Coat each chicken breast in the flour mixture, shaking off excess. Dip into the beaten eggs, then coat with panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

Fry the Chicken
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded chicken breasts. Fry for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.
