4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (cut into small chunks)
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 ½ teaspoons salt
¾ teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon paprika
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon baking powder
1 egg (beaten)
1 cup milk
2 cups panko bread crumbs
oil (for deep frying)
Instructions
In a shallow bowl beat together 1 egg and 1 cup of milk. In another shallow bowl (or pie plate) combine flour, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and baking powder. Mix well. In another shallow plate add panko bread crumbs.
Roll each piece of chicken first in the flour mixture, then dip in the egg mixture and then roll in panko bread crumbs. Once the chicken pieces are coated once repeat the process by rolling the chicken bits in the flour mixture, dipping in the egg mixture and rolling in the panko bread crumbs.
Heat oil in a deep fryer for 375 degrees. Deep fry chicken in batches until golden brown and fully cooked (the internal temperature has reached 165 degrees). Drain on paper towels.
