1 Mix eggs and milk together in a medium bowl. Add almost all of the salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder, reserving a dash of each for seasoning the chicken pieces. Set aside.
2 Sprinkle a dash of the remaining salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder onto both sides of the chicken pieces.
3 Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place flour in a plastic bag. Dip chicken pieces, one at a time, into the egg and milk mixture, then transfer to the bag. Shake to coat each piece evenly with flour.
4 You can check to see if the oil is hot enough by sprinkling a little flour in the skillet. If it fries, it's hot enough! Place the chicken pieces in the skillet. After about 5 minutes, turn the chicken over. Let chicken fry for about 15 minutes or until the meat is cooked through and the juices run clear.
5 Enjoy!
