1 1/2 cups dry breadcrumbs
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder

-Seal the bag and shake it well until all the contents are mixed thoroughly. Add the oil to the bag and shake again.
-Add one piece of chicken to the bag and shake it until the chicken is evenly covered with the mixture. Remove the chicken and allow the excess breading to fall back into the bag. Place the chicken skin side up on the parchment paper.
-Repeat the process with the rest of the chicken until all of the pieces are coated.
-Make sure the chicken is spaced evenly on the pan with no pieces touching.
