Dip each piece of chicken first in the dry flour mixture, then in the egg mixture, and back in the flour mixture again to create a good coating.

Carefully place the coated chicken pieces into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with a bit of salt while hot.
