How To: Bread Chicken Pieces

How to: Bread Chicken Pieces

1. Cut your chicken into equal sized pieces.
   • This will help your chicken cook evenly. 
   • If your chicken is a little wet, pat it dry with a paper towel. This will help the breading stick better. 
2. Place chicken into a plastic storage bag. 
   • Cuffing your storage bag around a bowl will make it easier to place the chicken inside without the bag falling over! 
3. Add a beaten egg. Be sure to seal up your plastic storage bag tightly to prevent spilling. 
4. Give the bag a good shake! Make sure all of the chicken pieces are completely covered in egg. 
5. Pour your bread crumbs into a second bag to prepare for breading.
   •  We don't add the bread crumbs directly to the egg and chicken mixture because we want to avoid the bread crumbs clumping together.
6. Seel your bag tight and give it a good shake!
   • Make sure to coat all of the pieces of chicken evenly.
   • Press slightly on the chicken to make sure the bread crumbs are sticking.
7. Remove your chicken from the bag for cooking!
   • This method of breading works well for both frying and baking!
