Step 2: Set Up a Breading Station Prepare three bowls: one with flour seasoned with salt and pepper, another with beaten eggs, and the third with breadcrumbs (panko works best for extra crispiness). Add optional grated Parmesan or herbs for added flavor.

Step 3: Bread the Chicken Dredge each cutlet in flour, dip it in the beaten eggs, and coat it thoroughly with breadcrumbs. Press the breadcrumbs gently to ensure a firm coating.

Step 4: Cook to Perfection Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the cutlets until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Avoid overcrowding the pan for even cooking.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy Place the cutlets on a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil. Serve them hot with lemon wedges, a side salad, or your favorite dipping sauce.
