Garlic Chicken Fried Chicken

I got this recipe from allrecipes.com, which is my new best friend. I used boneless skinless chicken thighs instead of breasts, and I think it's probably better since the thighs are more moist than the breasts. They turned out a little like chicken fingers, and we thought they would make good sandwiches or sliced on a salad.

2 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. ground black pepper
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. paprika
1/2 c. seasoned bread crumbs
1 c. all purpose flour
1/2 c. milk
1 egg
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves- pounded thin
1 c. oil for frying, or as needed

Directions:
In a shallow dish, mix together the garlic powder, pepper, salt, paprika, bread crumbs, and flour. In a separate dish, whisk together the milk and egg. Heat the oil in an electric skillet to 350 degrees. Dip the chicken into the egg and milk, then dredge in the dry ingredients until evenly coated. Fry chicken in the hot oil for about 5 min. per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and juices run clear. Remove from the oil with a slotted spatula, and serve.
