How to make the perfect Chicken Cutlets

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated mozzarella

Nutritional yeast adds a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: vegetable oil

Vegetable oil is more affordable and has a high smoke point.

Slice chicken breasts as thin as possible and wash them off camera.

In a bowl, add 2 eggs and rub them into the chicken.

Season the chicken with 1 tablespoon black parmesan seasoning, 1 tablespoon all-purpose seasoning, and a dash of red pepper flakes. Let it marinate for around 20 minutes.

Prepare breadcrumbs by mixing 1 cup Italian breadcrumbs with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon dried oregano.

Coat each chicken piece individually with the breadcrumb mixture and set aside.

Realize that the breadcrumb mixture is not enough and prepare a second batch with another cup of breadcrumbs, salt, and oregano.

Heat 1/2 cup canola oil in a skillet until it reaches around 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Add the chicken pieces to the hot skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.

Fry the chicken cutlets for around 5 to 7 minutes, then flip to cook the other side, adjusting cooking time based on the size of the cutlets.

Once finished with the first batch, repeat the frying process for the second batch.
