Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Chicken: Wash the boneless, skinless chicken breasts under cold water, then pat dry with paper towels.
  2. Set Up the Breading Station: Place the seasoned flour, whisked eggs, and panko breadcrumbs in separate bowls.
  3. Dredge the Chicken: Dredge each chicken breast in the seasoned flour, then dip into the whisked eggs and press into panko breadcrumbs.
  4. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  5. Fry the Chicken: Fry each chicken breast for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.

  7. Assemble the Sandwich: Start with the bottom bun, add lettuce, tomato, and then the crispy chicken, topped with the other half.
