Rub the chicken pieces with the spice mixture and refrigerate for 3-4 hours, then remove and place on kitchen paper. Heat the frying oil in a deep fryer to 180 degrees Celsius. Mix the milk and eggs in a bowl. In another bowl, mix the flour, paprika, baking powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Dip each piece in the milk mixture and then in the flour mixture. Then dip the pieces again in the milk mixture and then in the flour mixture. Place the breaded pieces on a plate. Then add half of the pieces to the deep fryer and fry for 15 minutes, turning the chicken pieces once. Remove the chicken pieces from the fryer and drain on kitchen paper, keep warm if necessary. Do the same with the second half. Serve. French fries or wedges go well with this.
