Ingredients

  • 2 whole Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts, Cut Into Small Pieces
  • 1 cup All-purpose Flour
  • 1 Tablespoon Seasoned Salt (such As Lawry's)
  • Salt And Black Pepper To Taste
  • 2 whole Eggs
  • 2 Tablespoons Water
  • 2 cups Seasoned Breadcrumbs
  • Vegetable Oil, For Frying
  • Ketchup And Mustard, For Serving

Method

  • First, make the breading assembly line: In one bowl, stir together the flour, seasoned salt, salt and pepper.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and water.
  • In a third bowl, add the breadcrumbs.
  • Bread a few pieces of chicken at a time by dredging them with flour, then quickly dunking them in the egg mixture, then rolling them in the breadcrumbs until theyre coated.
  • Shake off the excess and place them on a plate or pan as you bread the rest.
  • In a large nonstick skillet over medium heat (place the skillet on the backburner!
  • ), heat 1 1/2 to 2 inches of vegetable oil over medium-low to medium heat.
  • (You want it to be hot enough to sizzle gently when you add the chicken, but not so hot that it browns too quickly.)
  • Carefully drop in 8 to 10 pieces of chicken and use metal tongs to spread them out to give them room.
  • Let them fry on the first side for a minute or so, then carefully turn them over to brown on the other side.
  • The chicken should cook until the breadcrumbs are deep golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes total; if the chicken pieces are small, this should be enough time for the chicken to cook through.
  • Remove the chicken to a paper towel lined plate and repeat with the rest of the chicken until its all fried.
  • Serve warm with ketchup and/or mustard!
