Wash the chicken pieces well and dry them

Coat the chicken pieces in the egg mixture and then in the panko breadcrumbs or crushed cornflakes
Let it rest for 10 minutes while heating the oil to about 1 cm deep in a pan
Fry about 6 pieces of chicken, skin side down, until golden brown on both sides
Add some tablespoons (scoop) of water
Cover the pan and simmer over low heat for about 20 minutes, or until the chicken is tender
Repeat the process until all the chicken is cooked, adding more oil and water as needed
This crispy fried chicken can be served cold or reheated in the oven.
