How to Bread Fish or Chicken with Bread Crumbs

Prepare the Ingredients

Gather all necessary ingredients: raw fish or chicken, bread crumbs, flour, and beaten eggs.

Pat the fish or chicken dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This ensures the breading will adhere better.

Lightly coat each piece of fish or chicken in flour. Shake off any excess flour.

Dip the floured meat into a bowl of beaten eggs, ensuring it is completely covered.

Roll each piece in a plate of bread crumbs, pressing gently to ensure the crumbs stick to the meat.

Place the breaded fish or chicken on a baking sheet or plate. Let it rest for a few minutes to help the breading set before cooking.
