Method
Preparing Chicken Cutlets
- 1
Prepare Chicken
Begin by placing the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap. Use a meat mallet or rolling pin to pound them to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch.

Season Chicken
Remove the plastic wrap and season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

Set Up Breading Station
In three shallow dishes, set up your breading station: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and the last with breadcrumbs.

Bread the Chicken
Dredge each chicken breast in flour, shaking off the excess. Dip into the beaten eggs, and then coat with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

Fry the Chicken
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken cutlets. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.
