    Preparation Steps

    1

    Slice the chicken breast fillets into thin cutlets, then gently pound them to an even thickness. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

    2

    Prepare three shallow dishes for breading: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.

    3

    Dredge each chicken cutlet in flour, then dip it in the beaten eggs, and finally coat it thoroughly with breadcrumbs. Ensure the breading adheres evenly to the meat.

    4

    In a skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the breaded chicken cutlets and fry until golden brown on both sides (about 4-5 minutes per side).

    5

    Transfer the fried chicken cutlets to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

    6

    Serve the breaded chicken cutlets with a fresh salad, mashed potatoes, or rice.
