Instructions

Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Slice them into strips about 3/4 – 1 inch wide, resulting in 4 slices per 8 oz breast.
Place a chicken strip cut side up on a cutting board and cover it with plastic wrap. Using a meat mallet, gently pound the strip flat without tearing.
Transfer the pounded chicken strips to a large platter or half sheet pan. Season each side lightly with salt and pepper.
Refrigerate the seasoned cutlets while preparing the breading station.

Notes

For added flavor, let the chicken marinate in spices for a few minutes before breading.
Make sure to keep the oil at the correct temperature for crispy cutlets.
Feel free to serve these cutlets with your favorite dipping sauce.
