Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the boneless, skinless chicken breasts with dill pickle juice, ensuring all pieces are submerged. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Set up a three-bowl breading station. In the first bowl, mix all-purpose flour with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. In the second bowl, whisk eggs. In the third bowl, combine breadcrumbs and Parmesan.
- In a large skillet, pour in enough vegetable oil to cover the bottom, about half an inch deep. Heat over medium heat until shimmering, about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove the marinated chicken from the fridge and shake off excess pickle juice. Dredge each piece in flour, dip into eggs, then press into the breadcrumb mixture.
- Carefully fry the breaded chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Ensure it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
- Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
- Let the chicken rest for 5-10 minutes before serving to redistribute juices.
- Serve warm, potentially with a side of coleslaw or fries.

Notes
Ensure oil is hot before adding chicken to prevent sogginess. Avoid overcrowding the skillet.
