Marinating the Chicken
1. Prepare the Marinade
In a large bowl, mix lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and dried oregano to create the marinade.
2. Marinate the Chicken
Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.
Breading the Chicken
3. Prepare the Breading
In a separate bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
4. Coat the Chicken
Remove the marinated chicken from the refrigerator. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture, ensuring an even coating. Shake off excess flour.
Frying the Chicken
5. Heat the Oil
In a large, deep skillet or frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
6. Fry the Chicken
Carefully place the coated chicken pieces into the hot oil, frying in batches if necessary. Cook for about 8-10 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
7. Drain and Serve
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oil and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with lemon wedges.
