Defrost chicken breasts from the freezer.

Cut chicken into chunks similar to chicken wing size using kitchen scissors.

Prepare a brine using 2/3 cup of pickle juice in a plastic container and add chicken pieces.

Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.

In a separate container, crack 1 egg and add between 0.5 to 1 cup of milk, whisk until combined.

In another bowl, mix 1 cup of breadcrumbs, 1 cup of flour, 1 teaspoon of black pepper, 0.5 teaspoon of cayenne powder, 1.5 teaspoons of garlic powder, and 1 teaspoon of paprika to create the breading mix.

Drain chicken from the brine and pour the egg wash over the chicken pieces.

Bread the chicken by dipping into the flour, then the egg wash, and back into the flour again, placing on a plate lined with waxed paper.

Let the breaded chicken sit in the fridge for 30 minutes.

Heat vegetable oil in a wok to 350-375°F.

Fry chicken pieces in batches for 4-5 minutes until golden brown, ensuring not to overcrowd the wok.

Remove fried chicken and place on a cooling rack over a broiler pan lined with paper towels.
