Method
Chicken Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Chicken
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
- 2
Bread the Chicken
Set up a breading station: Place flour in one shallow dish, beat the eggs in a second shallow dish, and place breadcrumbs in a third shallow dish. Dip each chicken breast first into the flour, shaking off excess, then into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs, pressing to adhere.

Cook the Chicken
In a large skillet, heat 1 cup of olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add breaded chicken breasts in batches (do not overcrowd) and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer cooked chicken to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
