Prep:
​
Clean and dry the chicken breasts with a paper towel.
In a large bowl combine flour, paprika, cayenne pepper, chili powder and basil, stir with a spoon to mix and set aside.
Fill a deep large pan with vegetable oil to a high enough level to cover each individual chicken breasts, begin to heat at a high temperature.
​
Instructions:
​
1) Salt and black pepper the chicken breasts to your taste, then using your hand massage the breasts.
​
2) Individually dip each chicken breast into the flour mixture, covering both sides in the flour and pat down the chicken breast to make sure it does not have any excess flour hanging on, before then carefully dropping into the hot oil. (Reduce heat to a medium/high heat).
​
3) Repeat this step with all chicken breasts, frying each for approximately 10 minutes. Turn each breast frequently to make sure it is cooked through. (You can pierce the breasts with a fork to check it has cooked through.)
​
done) Once the chicken breasts are golden brown, remove from oil onto a paper toweled dish to drain any excess oil.
