Tested To Perfection Chicken Cutlet Recipe
You’ll always find these chicken cutlets in my house. We make big batches and freeze them. That way, there’s always a delicious start to a meal right at our fingertips! I use these cutlets as a base for Chicken Parmesan, Chicken Picatta, and we often eat them just as they are with Roasted Broccoli and Rice Pilaf. This recipe has countless uses, but however, you serve them they are always fantastic!
Step by Step Instructions
Pound the chicken breasts until they are an even thickness. This can be done with a proper meat mallet or a rolling pin works really well. This step is not for tenderizing (chicken breasts are already tender). It’s really about even cooking so no need to beat them up. Just gently pound to an even thickness. About a ¼-inch thickness works best. In a small bowl, mix together the panko breadcrumbs and the Parmesan cheese then transfer to a plate or shallow bowl. Place seasoned bread crumbs into a second shallow bowl. Beat eggs and milk in a third shallow bowl and season with salt and pepper. Dip the chicken into the egg mixture. Dredge in the seasoned breadcrumbs. Dip the breaded chicken back into the egg and coat with panko mixture. Always wash your hands well after handling raw chicken. Pour the oil into a large heavy skillet to about ¼ inch deep and heat over medium-high heat. Add the breaded chicken. Working in 2 batches, cook the chicken without turning until golden brown. Transfer the cutlets to a paper towel-lined plate and season with salt. Enjoy every last bite!
Reheating Frozen Cutlets
Place frozen cutlets on a baking tray in an oven set to 400°F/200°C and bake for 15-18 minutes. You’ll know they are done when they start to bubble and sizzle around the edges.
