- In a medium bowl, lightly beat the eggs with a whisk.
- Dip the chicken on both sides in flour, then shake off a little of the excess flour.

Notes
- Let the chicken rest after baking so that the juices redistribute and the residual heat finishes off the chicken.
- Get organized before you start the dipping. Have your three bowls of flour, egg, and the crust mixture laid out to make your assembly line run smoothly.
- Taste the coating mixture before applying it to the chicken to make sure you approve of the flavor balance. Change accordingly.
