Prepare the Chicken

Prepare the Chicken Breasts
Start by flattening the chicken breasts to an even thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin. This helps them cook evenly.

Bread the Chicken
Set up a breading station: in one bowl, place the flour mixed with salt and pepper. In a second bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, place the panko breadcrumbs. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dip into the egg, and then coat thoroughly with panko breadcrumbs.
