Meanwhile, mix flour, powdered sugar, salt, paprika, pepper, celery salt, and basil in a bowl.

Whisk eggs and milk together in another bowl.

Drain liquid from the chicken and rinse off briefly. Shake any excess liquid from chicken.

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Deep-fry chicken, a few pieces at a time, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
