Bread the Chicken
First, dip each piece of seasoned chicken into the flour, shaking off the excess. Next, dip it into the beaten eggs, and finally coat it with the breadcrumb mixture. Ensure each piece is well coated.
Cooking

Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Fry the Chicken Bites
Carefully add the breaded chicken bites to the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to ensure they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

Drain Excess Oil
