Chicken Cutlet

Sandwich Assembly

Method

Preparing Chicken Cutlet

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Pound the chicken breasts to even thickness using a meat mallet, about 1/2 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Set up Breading Station

    Set up three shallow dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dredge each chicken breast in flour, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

  4. 4

    Fry the Chicken

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the breaded chicken cutlets for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 5

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 6

    Add Marinara Sauce

    Spread 1/2 cup of marinara sauce on each submarine roll.

  3. 7

    Layer Chicken and Cheese

    Place one chicken cutlet on top of the marinara sauce, then top with remaining marinara sauce and sprinkle mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.

  4. 8

    Bake the Sandwiches

    Place the assembled sandwiches on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

  5. 9

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the sandwiches from the oven, sprinkle with fresh basil leaves and grated Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
