Bread

How do I keep the bread crumbs from falling off the chicken breast?

I just made some chicken, and used bread crumbs to coat it. I dipped the chicken in egg, applied the bread crumbs then fried it for a minute. I then baked the chicken in the oven until it was cooked, but the bread crumbs fell off when I picked the chicken piece up. Is there a way to secure the bread crumbs?

  1. Dip them in egg or a mixture of egg and milk
  2. The best thing to do is the double dip method. first you dip the chicken in flour with salt and pepper, then dip into egg/buttermilk mixture then into bread crumbs, but don't put in a large amount of oil. Just put enough oil to come up about 1/2 inch so the chicken is not completely covered by the oil. Then after you fry it, then back it for a little while. That should take care of it.
  3. roll your chicken in flour first then in egg wash then into bread crumb coating.. this should help a great deal..also don`t move your chicken around in the pan til ready to turn.. if it sticks and coating comes off then they weren`t ready to be flipped..
