Preparation Steps
Prepare the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Using a meat mallet or rolling pin, gently pound the chicken to about 1/2 inch thickness.
Set Up Breading Station
In three separate shallow dishes, place the flour in the first, beaten eggs in the second, and a mixture of breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper in the third.
Bread the Chicken
Coat each chicken breast first in the flour, shaking off the excess, then dip into the egg, and finally press into the breadcrumb mixture until well coated.
Cook the Chicken
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
