Italian Three Cheese Crispy Chicken Recipes

BEST EVER CHICKEN CUTLETS

Steps:

• Add the breadcrumbs, garlic, parsley, Italian seasoning, and 3/4 cup cheese to a medium shallow bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then use your fingers to mix it together, working the garlic into the breadcrumbs until evenly distributed.
• In another medium, shallow bowl, whisk together 3 eggs with 1/2 cup cheese, a pinch of salt and pepper and 1 tablespoon water until combined.
• Pour the flour into another shallow bowl or plate, season with salt and pepper and mix to combine.
• Take one piece of thinly sliced chicken and place it on a cutting board. Place a piece of plastic wrap over top, then use a meat mallet to pound it out to be about 1/2 inch thick. Repeat with the remaining chicken.
• Season each piece of chicken on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Set up the breading station so that the chicken is on the far left, then next to it the flour, then the egg, then the breadcrumbs, and then a landing plate or pan to hold the breaded chicken.
• Take a piece of chicken and dip it into the flour to coat on all sides, then tap off the excess (*See note).
• Next, dip it in the egg mixture and let the excess drip off.
• Transfer the chicken into the breadcrumbs. Be sure to press it down and move it around so that it's thoroughly coated. Place the chicken on the reserved plate, and repeat with the remaining pieces.
• Heat a generous amount of olive oil in a large, heavy bottomed saute pan over medium-high heat. Place 1-3 chicken breasts in at a time, depending on how many your pan can hold. Don't overcrowd the pan.
• Cook until golden brown on each side, then remove to a rack or paper towels to drain.
• Serve immediately, or place in a 250 degree F oven for up to 1 hour before serving to keep warm.

TENDER ITALIAN BAKED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• In a bowl, mix the mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, and garlic powder. Place bread crumbs in a separate bowl. Dip chicken into the mayonnaise mixture, then into the bread crumbs to coat. Arrange coated chicken on a baking sheet.
• Bake 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until chicken juices run clear and coating is golden brown.

EASY CHICKEN CUTLETS RECIPE - ITALIAN STYLE!

Steps:

• Slice the chicken breasts to fillet them very thin. No more than 1/4 thick!
• Place a few at a time in a large plastic ziplock bag and use a meat mallet/tenderizer to flatten the breasts even more. You can skip this step if you're real low on time - I have done it both ways.
• In a bowl, add the salt and pepper to the flour and mix so it's blended evenly.
• In a separate bowl mix the parsley with the breadcrumbs
• Dip cutlets in the flour, egg, then breadcrumbs mixture in that order. The flour allows the egg to adhere, hence it is first.
• Heat olive oil in a large frying pan over medium high heat
• Place in frying pan and fry for about 2 - 3 minutes
• Turn over and fry another 1 minute or until fully cooked. Length of time varies depending on the thickness of the breasts.
• Remove from the pan and place directly on paper towels to absorb excess oil.

CRISPY ITALIAN CHICKEN CUTLETS

Steps:

• In a bowl beat the eggs with milk, fine salt and ground black pepper. Set aside.
• With a sharp knife slice the chicken breast horizontally, trying to make chicken slices as thin as possible.
• Place the chicken slices in the bowl with the beaten eggs and milk and set them aside to flavor, possibly in the fridge.
• Make homemade breadcrumbs using stale bread, breadsticks, saltine crackers, taralli and slices of bread loaf as long as they are dry or toasted.
• Place plenty of breadcrumbs on a plate then take the slices of chicken and bread them.
• In a large frying pan, pour all the vegetable oil. Once the oil has become hot, dip the breaded chicken cutlets.
• Once they are golden on both sides, take them out and dry them on a kitchen paper. Serve
