Preheat a large skillet with vegetable oil over medium heat to a temperature of 350°F (175°C).
Place the corn flakes in a resealable plastic bag and crush them into small crumbs using a rolling pin or your hands. Pour the crumbs into a shallow dish.
In another shallow dish, combine the flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
In a third shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, and the remaining 0.5 teaspoon of salt until smooth.
Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and, if they are very thick, butterfly them or pound them lightly to an even thickness for more uniform cooking.
Dredge a piece of chicken in the seasoned flour mixture, ensuring it is evenly coated. Shake off any excess flour.
Dip the floured chicken into the egg mixture, making sure it is fully coated.
Place the chicken into the crushed corn flakes, pressing gently to ensure the flakes adhere to the surface. Repeat the egg and cornflake coating process for a double-coated crust.
Repeat steps 6 through 8 for the remaining chicken pieces and set them aside on a plate.
Carefully place the coated chicken breasts into the hot oil, ensuring the skillet is not overcrowded (cook in batches if necessary). Fry each piece for 6-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown, crispy, and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve the double-coated chicken hot with your favorite dipping sauce or side dishes, such as mashed potatoes or a fresh salad.
