To prepare chicken breasts:
- Rinse in cold water and pour 1 cup white vinegar over chicken.
- Cut off excess fat and cut breasts in half.
- Place chicken in a ziplock bag and squeeze the juice of half of a lemon over chicken. Refrigerate until ready to use. (When chicken is on sale, I buy a lot and prepare it this way, then freeze until ready to use. The lemon juice makes the meat tender.)
In a small bowl, combine the eggs and milk. Set aside.
In another larger bowl, combine the flour with 1 tablespoon of garlic salt and 1 tablespoon of lemon pepper. Set aside.
Pour oil to a depth of 1 inch into a heavy frying pan or electric skillet; heat to 350°F (medium to medium-high).
Season chicken with salt, pepper, garlic salt, and lemon pepper.
Dip into the egg mixture and dredge in flour mixture, coating chicken well.
Fry chicken in hot oil over medium heat for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden, turning occasionally.
Remove and drain on paper towels.
