Ingredients
  

For the Cutlets:

  • 2 boneless chicken breasts about 1 pound—thinly sliced or pounded flat for tender meat.
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs—plain or seasoned your call; this is the secret to that satisfying crunch.
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour—helps the coating stick like glue.
  • 2 large eggs—beaten smooth to lock in the crispy goodness.
  • 1 teaspoon salt—brings out the flavor in every bite.
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper—adds a little kick.
  • 1 teaspoon paprika optional—for a smoky hint and gorgeous color.

For Frying:

  • ½ cup vegetable oil—or enough to coat your pan; it’s frying time!
