Ingredients

  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • ½ cup panko
  • ½ cup Italian breadcrumbs
  • ½ cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • ¼ cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoon butter
  • 2 tablespoon canola oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley

Instructions

  • Split the boneless, skinless chicken breasts in half horizontally. Place the chicken cutlets between sheets of parchment paper and pound them until they are an even thickness.
  • In a wide, shallow bowl mix together panko, Italian breadcrumbs, garlic powder, and grated Parmesan. Set aside.
  • Put the flour in a wide, shallow bowl and lightly coat both sides of the chicken in flour.
  • Whisk together the eggs and water. Coat the chicken with the eggs.
  • Coat the chicken with the breadcrumb mixture.
  • Finally, sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper, if desired.
  • Heat one tablespoon of butter and one tablespoon of canola oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Carefully add two of the coated chicken breasts and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165˚F. Then, add the remaining butter and oil and cook the remaining chicken breasts.
  • Garnish with parsley, if desired.
