Marinate chicken in a mixture of garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt for at least 1 hour.

In a bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, cayenne pepper, and baking powder.

In another bowl, beat eggs and mix with water.

Dredge marinated chicken pieces in the flour mixture, then dip into the egg mixture, and back into the flour mixture for a thick coating.

Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Fry chicken pieces in batches, cooking until golden brown and cooked through, about 10-12 minutes per batch.

Remove chicken and drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.

Serve hot with fresh herbs sprinkled on top.
