- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp. garlic powder

2. In another bowl, mix together the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
3. Coat the chicken pieces in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
4. Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat.
5. Fry the chicken pieces until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
6. Remove the chicken from the pan and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
