Season the thin sliced chicken breast with Lawry's seasoning salt, salt, pepper, onion powder, and Italian seasoning.

In a bowl, combine 1 egg and milk, ensuring the mixture is more yellow than white for a crispy crust.

Mix the egg and milk until well blended.

Add a few sprinkles of parmesan cheese to the egg and milk mixture and mix it in.

Use a ziplock bag filled with all-purpose flour to coat the chicken.

Dip both sides of the chicken breast into the egg mixture, then coat it in the flour inside the ziplock bag, shaking to ensure an even coating.

Add the coated chicken to the deep fryer set to the highest heat.

Cook the chicken until it is golden brown.
