Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb chicken breast
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large egg
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. 1

    Cut the 1.5 lb chicken breast into 1-inch bite-sized pieces. Pat dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    In a shallow bowl, whisk the 2 eggs. In another shallow bowl, mix the 1 cup flour with 1 tsp garlic powder and 1 tsp paprika.

  3. 3

    Dip each chicken piece into the egg, then coat in the flour mixture. Shake off excess and place on a plate.

  4. 4

    Heat the 0.5 cup vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the chicken in batches, without crowding, until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    In a small bowl, mix the 1 cup yogurt with the 0.25 cup chopped parsley and a pinch of salt. Serve the chicken bites with the yogurt dip and cherry tomatoes on the side.
