Method
Preparation

Prepare the Meat
If using chicken breasts, slice them in half horizontally to create thinner pieces. For beef cutlets, you can pound them to about 1/4 inch thickness. Pat the meat dry with paper towels.
Breading Setup
- 2
Set Up Breading Stations
In one shallow dish, place the all-purpose flour. In a second shallow dish, beat the eggs. In a third shallow dish, combine breadcrumbs, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Breading the Meat

Bread the Meat
Coat each piece of meat in flour, shaking off the excess. Dip into the beaten eggs, allowing the excess to drip off, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Cooking

Fry the Milanesa
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully place the breaded meat in the skillet (do this in batches if necessary). Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
