- Put the flour, breadcrumbs and eggs into three separate bowls. Whisk up the eggs and season the flour with salt and pepper.
- Meanwhile, heat a deep fat fryer to 180°C.
- Coat the cod/chicken in flour, dip into the beaten egg and finally coat in breadcrumbs. Repeat with all pieces of cod/chicken.
- Pop the bread-crumbed cod/chicken into the fryer for about 3–5 minutes, until cooked through and golden brown. Transfer the fried fish or chicken to a bowl lined with kitchen paper to drain off any excess oil.
