Method
Chicken Cutlet Preparation
Prepare the Chicken
Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness using a meat mallet for even cooking.
Set up Breading Station
In one bowl, place flour mixed with salt and pepper. In another bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, mix breadcrumbs with Parmesan cheese.
Bread the Chicken
Dredge each chicken breast in flour, shaking off excess. Dip into beaten eggs, then coat with breadcrumb mixture, pressing to adhere.
Fry the Chicken
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Fry chicken cutlets until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
Marinara Sauce Preparation
Assembly
Toast Ciabatta
Slice ciabatta rolls in half and toast them until golden.
Assemble the Sandwich
Place a fried chicken cutlet on each roll, top with marinara sauce, and a slice of provolone cheese. Add fresh basil leaves.
Melt the Cheese
Place assembled sandwiches under a broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
