Chicken Milanese Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Chicken

   Start by placing each chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap. Use a meat mallet or rolling pin to pound the chicken to an even thickness (about 1/2 inch).

2. 2

   Season and Dredge

   Season the flour with salt and pepper in a shallow bowl. In another bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, add the panko breadcrumbs. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, then dip in the egg, and finally coat with panko breadcrumbs.

3. 3

   Fry the Chicken

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

4. 4

   Prepare the Topping

   While the chicken is cooking, dice the red onion and tomato. In a bowl, mix them together, adding salt and pepper to taste.

5. 5

   Serve

   Place the cooked chicken on a plate and top with the diced onion and tomato mixture. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.
