Best 10 Breaded Chicken Cutlets Recipes

HäHNCHEN SCHNITZEL (GERMAN PAN FRIED BREADED CHICKEN CUTLETS) RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• Beat eggs in a shallow bowl with garlic, parsley, salt and pepper. In a separate shallow bowl, combine breadcrumbs (I pulse the bread slices in the food processor to get nice fresh crumbs) and parmesan cheese. Place chicken cutlets between two sheets of waxed paper and beat as thinly as possible with a meat mallet. Dip each cutlet into egg mixture to coat completely, then dredge in breadcrumb mixture, patting it on to help it stick. For each 2 cutlets, heat 2 tbsp oil in a large non-stick skillet over med-high heat. Cook 2 cutlets at a time until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the cooked chicken cutlets to an oven-proof platter or pan, and keep warm in the oven while cooking the remaining cutlets and making the sauce. Wipe the skillet clean with paper towels. Heat butter until melted and add wine. Heat 30 seconds and stir in broth and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. Simmer 2 minutes. Pour broth mixture over cutlets and serve. Garnish with parsley and lemon slices.

• Prepare two plates or a jelly-roll pan (for placing the breaded chicken on).
• Place the chicken into a colinder and allow all the buttermilk mixture to drain.
• Dredge each chicken breast into the flour mixture until completely coated; transfer to a large plate or jelly-roll pan; allow to sit for 15 minutes then lightly coat once again into the flour mixture.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat (use enough oil to generously coat the bottom of your skillet).
• Fry each breast until golden brown and cooked through.

BREADED CHICKEN CUTLETS

Steps:

• In a shallow dish, combine flour with a pinch of salt. In another dish, whisk together egg, 1 tablespoons water, and a pinch of salt. In a third dish, stir together breadcrumbs, 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoons black pepper.
• Working with one cutlet at a time, dredge cutlet in flour to coat completely, then shake off excess flour. Dip floured chicken in the egg mixture, turning to coat completely. Let excess drip off. Place cutlet in breadcrumb mixture, patting it in and turning it coat both sides. Shake off any excess crumbs before proceeding.
• In a large nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium; swirl to coat pan. Add 4 cutlets; cook until golden brown and no longer pink in the center, 2-3 minutes per side. Remove. Repeat with remaining oil and chicken. Remove cutlets to serving tray. Squeeze juice of two lemons into bottom of skillet, add 2 tablespoons butter and swirl until melted, scraping up any browned bits. Serve sauce with cutlets.

BREADED CHICKEN CUTLETS WITH BUTTERMILK RANCH SALAD

Steps:

• Whisk 2/3 cup of the buttermilk, the sour cream, dill, chives, 1/2 teaspoon of the garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon of the onion powder, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Cut the chicken breasts in half through the middle so that it looks like you are opening up a book, making 4 roughly equal pieces (they should look like thinner chicken breasts). Place a chicken breast between 2 pieces of plastic wrap, drizzle with some canola oil to keep the plastic wrap from sticking, and pound out to 1/4-inch thick. Repeat with the other 3 chicken breasts. Sprinkle each breast with salt and pepper.
• Set up a standard breading station: Mix the flour, 2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper in a shallow dish or pie plate. Beat the eggs with the remaining 1/3 cup buttermilk, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a couple grinds of pepper in a second shallow dish or pie plate. Mix the panko, remaining 2 teaspoons garlic powder, remaining 2 teaspoons onion powder, 2 teaspoons salt and a generous amount of pepper in a third shallow dish or pie plate.
• Dredge one piece of chicken in the flour mixture, turning to coat evenly. Shake off any excess then dip into the egg mixture, turning to fully coat both sides. Let the excess egg drip off, then press firmly into the breadcrumb mixture, turning to coat on both sides and packing the crumbs into any crevices. Transfer the chicken to a baking sheet and repeat with the remaining pieces.
• Line a clean baking sheet with paper towels or a rack. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 pieces of chicken and cook until the breading is golden brown and crisp and the chicken is just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to the baking sheet lined with paper towels or a rack. Sprinkle with salt while the chicken is still hot. Wipe the skillet clean if necessary and repeat with more oil and chicken.
• Toss the romaine with the buttermilk ranch, Parmesan and a large pinch of salt. Serve the chicken alongside the salad, sprinkle with more Parmesan if desired.

ITALIAN STYLE BREADED CHICKEN CUTLETS

Steps:

• 1. Season chicken cutlets with salt and pepper. Place 2 shallow bowls on a work surface. Add the breadcrumbs, cheese, parsley, garlic and salt and pepper to one bowl. Add the beaten eggs plus 1 tbsp of water to the second bowl.
• 2. Working with one cutlet at a time, dip the cutlet into the beaten eggs, lift and allow excess egg to drain off, then transfer to bread crumb mixture. With your hand, scoop bread crumbs on top of chicken and press lightly, turn chicken over and repeat to ensure a good layer of crumbs on both sides. Transfer the cutlet to a clean plate and repeat with remaining cutlets.
• 3. Add oil to a large skillet over medium high heat, enough to cover the bottom. I use a clad stainless steel for this but non-stick and cast iron work well also. If using cast iron, heat over medium heat.
• 4. Gently lower cutlets into the skillet and fry, adjusting heat as necessary for a steady, slight bubble until bottom is browned, about 3 - 4 minutes. Flip cutlets and fry until the other side is browned, about another 4 minutes.
• 5. Transfer to paper towels to drain and repeat with remaining cutlets. I keep them in the oven at 200° on a baking sheet lined with paper towels if we are going to eat them immediately.
• 6. *If you cannot find chicken cutlets at your local grocery, you can buy chicken breasts. Slice them in half the long way and then pound them out with a meat mallet or a heavy skillet.

BREADED CHICKEN CUTLETS (AKA GRANDMA JODY'S CHICKEN)

Steps:

• Add the oil to a large skillet set over medium-high heat.
• Set up your dredging stations: one rimmed plate for the eggs, one plate for the flour, and one plate for the bread crumbs. Using a fork, coat your chicken pieces first in the flour (shaking off any excess), then in the egg, then in the crumbs, pressing the chicken into the crumbs to thoroughly coat.
• Fry each breast in the oil for 3 to 4 minutes on each side. (I usually do two at a time, but I've been known to cram all of them in at once and then spend the entire meal wishing I had just sucked it up and waited the 6 extra minutes.) The cutlets are cooked when chicken is firm to the touch but not rock hard.
• Remove and drain the chicken onto a paper-towel-lined dinner plate tented with foil if you have more pieces to fry. Add more oil to the pan and fry the remaining breasts.

BREADED CHICKEN CUTLETS WITH SAGE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Stir buttermilk, hot sauce, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Add chicken; turn to coat well. Let marinate for about 15 minutes. Stir breadcrumbs and sage in another bowl; set aside.
• Heat about 1 inch oil in a large skillet until it reaches 365 degrees on a deep-fry thermometer. Working with 1 cutlet at a time, transfer chicken from the buttermilk mixture to the breadcrumb mixture, coating both sides completely. Gently place in the hot oil. Cook, turning halfway through with tongs, until crisp and dark golden, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a rack or paper towels to drain. Transfer to a baking sheet, and put in oven to keep warm. Remove any bits of coating from skillet with a slotted spoon, and discard before adding more chicken. Repeat with remaining chicken. Garnish with fried leaves.
