Preparation time: 30 minutes
Cooking time: 3 minutes

Ingredients
- 4 chicken breast fillets, halved horizontally
- 2 eggs
- 100 g all-purpose flour
- 300 g bread crumbs
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- Salt
- Pepper
Method
- Place chicken fillets between two 12-inch-square pieces of plastic wrap and gently pound chicken to 1/4-inch thickness, using a meat pounder. Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
- Fill a bowl with flour, a second bowl with beaten eggs, and a third bowl with bread crumbs.
- Working with one cutlet at a time, dredge a cutlet in flour, shaking off excess. Transfer to egg bowl, then turn chicken to coat both sides. Allow excess egg to drain off, then transfer to bread crumbs. Scoop bread crumbs on top of chicken, then gently press, turning chicken to ensure a good layer of crumbs on both sides.
- Place the chicken fillets in a baking dish that has been lined with parchment paper.
- Heat oil in an iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Fry the coated breasts in single-layer batches until they are golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes.
- When ready transfer on paper towel.
