Season chicken overnight with regular seasoning.

Prepare seasoned flour and set aside.

Take the chicken out of the egg wash and coat it in flour.

Dip the floured chicken in water, then back into the flour.

Heat oil in a pot for frying.

Fry the chicken until golden brown on one side, then flip to brown the other side.

Ensure the oil temperature is right to avoid burning the chicken.

Remove chicken when both sides are golden brown.
