Preparation

Prepare the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap. Using a meat mallet or rolling pin, pound the chicken to about 1/2 inch thickness. This helps in even cooking and tenderizing the meat.

Set Up Breading Station
In three shallow dishes, set up your breading station. In the first dish, add the all-purpose flour and season with salt and black pepper. In the second dish, beat the eggs. In the third dish, combine the breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese.

Bread the Chicken
Take each chicken breast and coat it in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess. Then, dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing the excess to drip off. Finally, coat it with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere the breadcrumbs.

Cook the Chicken
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the breaded chicken breasts (you may need to do this in batches). Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/75°C).
