This chicken dish is I think the easiest appetizer or viand that you can cook. You just need a chicken breast fillet and some paprika and other simple ingredients you can find in the kitchen. Just toss them to coat the chicken and you are ready to fry it! Since chicken breast is a little bit dry, you can use other parts like thigh fillet to make it juicy and tastier. But if you want to use the chicken breast fillet, there is a method that will make it moist when fried. Just soak is in a brine solution using salt and sugar in equal amount then mix it with water. I have a brining method in this blog that you can use. Just search it here or just follow this link: how to brine your meat.
