Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Start by trimming the chicken breasts and pounding them to an even thickness to ensure they cook evenly.

  2. 2

    Set Up the Breading Station

    In three separate bowls, place the flour (seasoned with salt, pepper, and paprika), beaten eggs, and bread crumbs.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dredge each chicken breast in the flour mixture, then dip it in the beaten eggs, and finally coat it with the bread crumbs.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.

  5. 5

    Fry the Chicken

    Carefully add the breaded chicken breasts to the hot oil and fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce.
