Instructions:
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs.
- Dip each chicken bite into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat it in the flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere. Repeat this process for all the chicken bites.
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or pot to about 350°F (175°C) for frying. Make sure there is enough oil to submerge the chicken bites.
- Carefully place the coated chicken bites into the hot oil, a few at a time, and fry until they turn golden brown and crispy. This should take about 5-7 minutes.

- Use a slotted spoon or tongs to remove the fried chicken bites from the oil, allowing any excess oil to drain off. Place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any remaining oil.
- Repeat the frying process with the remaining chicken bites, ensuring the oil temperature remains consistent.
- Once all the chicken bites are fried, serve them hot as a snack or as part of a meal. They pair well with dipping sauces like ketchup, barbecue sauce, or ranch dressing.
