Juicy Fried Chicken Breast

Have you ever wondered how to make your chicken breast more juicy? No problem I got you all the way covered. I am going to share with you my favorite fried chicken breast recipe. If you make this recipe make sure you #jdelawcious so I can see your creation. 

What you will need:

2 Boneless or Split Chicken Breast

1/4 cup of Salt 

6 Cups of Water

1 Tbsp of J. Delawcious Poultry Seasoning 

2 Cups of All Purpose Flour

2 Eggs

1/8 Tsp of Garlic Powder 

1/8 Tsp of Pepper 

1/8 Tsp of Salt 

2 Cup of Canola Oil 

1 Cast Iron Skillet 

Prep:

Pour the water and salt into a large bowl. Stir the salt until it dissolves. Submerge chicken breast into the water. Let the chicken stand in the salt brine for 2 hours or overnight. Put in the fridge until ready for use. After the brining is over, remove the chicken from the liquid and pat the meat dry. Discard the brining liquid. Once the meat is dry, sprinkle the J. Delawcious seasoning over the chicken breast.

Then sit aside. In a shallow bowl add the flour, garlic powder, pepper, and salt. Mix well. In another shallow bowl beat the two eggs. Dip the chicken in the egg mixture and then into the flour. Once coated dip the chicken back into the egg and then again into the flour. Repeat this step for additional pieces.

Cook:

Pour oil into the skillet and heat to 350F. Once the temp is up, place the chicken in with tongs and cook about 5 minutes on one side, After five minutes flip the chicken. You want to continue to cook the chicken until you have an internal temp of 165F. 

Serve:

Serve this with greens, rice, or the no fail mac and cheese
