Ingredients
Scale
- 2, 8 oz chicken breasts
- salt and pepper
- 1/2 cup gluten-free flour blend
- 1–1/2 cups gluten-free panko-style breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1/3 cup neutral-tasting high-heat cooking oil like canola, vegetable, or avocado oil
Instructions
- Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels, then slice them into 3/4 – 1" wide strips, yielding 4 slices per 8 oz chicken breast.
- One at a time, place a strip cut side up on a cutting board and cover it with plastic wrap. Use a meat mallet to gently pound the strip thin without tearing the chicken.
- Transfer the flattened strip to a large platter or half sheet pan. Repeat with the remaining chicken strips.
- Season both sides of each cutlet lightly with salt and pepper, and refrigerate while setting up the breading station.
Notes
Use Kikkoman brand for the panko-style breadcrumbs for the best results.
Ensure chicken is cold before breading to help the coating adhere better.
Experiment with different seasonings to customize flavors.
