Thighs are often more flavorful and less expensive.

Cut boneless chicken breast into bite-sized pieces.

In a bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt.

In a separate bowl, beat eggs until well mixed.

In a third bowl, place bread crumbs and grated parmesan cheese.

Dip each chicken piece into the flour mixture, coating well.

Next, dip the coated chicken into the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off.

Finally, coat the chicken in the bread crumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

Heat cooking oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F.

Carefully add chicken bites in batches, frying until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes.

Remove chicken bites and drain on paper towels.

Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.

Serve with your choice of dipping sauces.
