For an extra crispy coating, double-dip the chicken: Coat in flour, dip in an egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon of water), then coat in flour again before frying. Adjust the seasoning to your liking. A pinch of cayenne pepper adds a nice kick. Ensure the oil is at the correct temperature for even cooking and optimal crispiness. Do not overcrowd the pan. Overcrowding will lower the oil temperature and result in soggy chicken.
