Chicken Cutlets

Step 4: Step 4: Shallow fry the chicken

  • Chicken

    • neutral oil
      for frying

    • breaded chicken

Over low heat, start heating about a 1/4 inch of oil in a wide, shallow frying pan.

Once your oil has reached 375°F/190°C, lay a breaded chicken into the pan (away from you to avoid oil splashing) and  for 3-4 minutes per side or until golden brown and the meat reaches 155°F/ 56°C internal temperature.

  • Focus on getting a quick but even, golden brown crust. The thin meat should be cooked through by the time the exterior is set.

Rest each fried cutlet on a wire rack or tray with paper towels, and sprinkle with salt immediately as it comes out of the pan. Repeat with remaining cutlets.

Enjoy immediately or store in the refrigerator or freezer for later use!
