Combine the milk, vinegar, salt, and cumin in a zipper baggie or medium bowl.

Flatten the chicken with a meat mallet and cut to make four 4 equal pieces. Add the chicken fillets to the milk mixture, cover, and chill for 1 hour.

In a coating tray, add the flour, baking powder, and taco seasoning.

Beat the egg in another coating tray, then whisk in 1/8 cup of the milk mixture from the chicken soaking baggie or bowl. Discard the rest of the milk mixture and set the chicken on a plate.

Coat each piece of chicken with the flour mixture, then the egg mixture, then put it back in the flour and coat it very well. Set the breaded chicken on a plate or sheet pan to rest for 5 minutes.
