Ingredients

For the Chicken Milanese

For the Salad

Preparation

For the Chicken Milanese

1. Prepare the Chicken

Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound them to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch using a meat mallet.

2. Set Up Breading Station

Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes: one with flour seasoned with salt and pepper, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.

3. Bread the Chicken

Dredge each chicken breast in flour, shaking off excess, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs. Press the breadcrumbs onto the chicken to adhere well.

4. Fry the Chicken

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

For the Salad

5. Prepare the Salad

In a large bowl, combine the fresh arugula and halved cherry tomatoes. Toss gently to mix.

6. Assemble the Dish

Slice the fried chicken into strips and place them on top of the arugula and tomatoes. Tear the fiore di latte cheese into pieces and scatter over the salad.

7. Finish with Balsamic Reduction

Drizzle the balsamic reduction over the chicken and salad for added flavor. Serve immediately.
