Ingredients

    Directions

    Chicken Milanese is an Italian classic that is essentially a breaded and pan-fried chicken cutlet similar to the schnitzel. Chicken breasts are pounded thin, dredged in flour, dipped in egg, and coated in seasoned breadcrumbs then fried until golden brown and crispy.

    Step1

    Pat chicken breasts dry with a paper towel. Slice the chicken lengthwise to make it thinner. Place a piece of plastic wrap over the chicken. Using a kitchen hammer pound out the chicken to 1/8-inch thickness.

    Step2

    In a medium bowl mix together 1 cup of flour and zest from 1 lemon, 2 teaspoons of salt and cracked pepper to taste.

    Step3

    In a separate medium bowl combine 1 cup of parmesan cheese, 1 cup of panko breadcrumbs, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, 2 teaspoons of garlic powder and 2 teaspoons of minced parsley.

    Step4

    Set up dredging station. Lightly beat eggs and pour into a shallow bowl or plate. Add flour mixture to a shallow bowl of plate and breadcrumb mixture to a separate shallow bowl or plate. Preheat oil in a cast iron skillet to 350 degrees F.

    Step5

    Dredge chicken in flour shaking off excess. Then dip the chicken in the beaten eggs, then into the breadcrumb mixture, pressing the crumbs gently into the chicken.

    Step6

    Carefully set the breaded chicken into hot oil. Fry the chicken for approximately 10 minutes each side.

    Step7

    Prepare salad while chicken is cooking.

    Step8

    Slice chicken if desired and plate with salad and your favorite dressing. Enjoy!
