Chicken Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Chicken
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap or parchment paper and pound them to an even thickness, about 1/2 inch thick. This helps them cook evenly.

Set Up Breading Station
In three separate shallow dishes, set up your breading station: one with flour mixed with salt and pepper, one with beaten eggs mixed with milk, and one with bread crumbs mixed with grated Parmesan cheese.

Bread the Chicken
Dredge each chicken breast in the flour mixture, shaking off the excess. Dip them into the egg mixture, then coat with the bread crumb and Parmesan mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

Fry the Chicken
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Fry the breaded chicken breasts for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. You may need to do this in batches. Transfer the fried chicken to a baking dish.
