Breading
- flour60 g
- eggs, beaten2
- panko bread crumbs120 g
- dried oreganoa sprinkle
- parmigiano reggiano, grated28 g
- garlic powdera sprinkle
- butterflied chicken breasts
Add flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs/dried oregano/Parmigiano/garlic powder into 3 separate shallow pans or containers. It’s helpful to have a plate or parchment-lined tray ready to receive breaded chicken nearby.
Pass and flip the chicken through the flour, egg, and breadcrumbs mixture, making sure the chicken gets even coverage before moving on between each step.
- Tip: shake off any excess flour and egg, and then lightly press the breadcrumbs into the cutlet and flip a few times to ensure full coverage.
Set the breaded chicken aside on a plate or tray until ready for frying.
