Categories     Main Course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 large chicken breasts (about 420g/16oz)
2 cup panko breadcrumbs (normal breadcrumbs are okay too)
½ cup plain flour
2 eggs (whisked)
frying oil (canola, sunflower or olive oil are all okay)
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Slice chicken breasts horizontally (or pound) to about 1cm/½inch thick.
  • Season chicken with salt and pepper.
  • Pour enough oil (for shallow frying) into a skillet or heavy-based frying pan. Preheat the oil on medium-high heat. (note 1)
  • Set up a coating station - 1 shallow bowl (or deep plate) for the eggs, 1 for the panko and 1 for the flour.
  • Using a pair of tongs, coat a slice of chicken breast with flour. Shake off excess flour then dip and coat with whisked eggs. Finally, coat with panko breadcrumbs. Make sure the entire piece of chicken is completely coated by all 3 ingredients each step of the way.
  • Repeat for all chicken slices.
  • Shallow fry coated chicken pieces in 2 batches, on medium-high heat. Flipping only once. (note 2)
  • Once both sides are golden, the chicken should be done. Test by cutting a piece if not sure. If the flesh is white then it's ready.
  • Rest panko chicken schnitzel pieces on a cooling rack for 5 minutes before serving.

Time 17m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup flour
3 eggs, beaten
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (about 6 ounces each)
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup canola oil
6 tablespoons butter
2 teaspoons capers
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon chopped parsley

Steps:

CRISPY PANKO CHICKEN CUTLETS



Crispy Panko Chicken Cutlets image

This is a fast and easy recipe to make on a busy night. We especially like the crunch of the Panko bread crumbs. (Panko crumbs can be found in the Asian section of the supermarket.)

Provided by TasteTester

Categories     Meat

Time 23m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
3/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
salt and pepper, to taste
3 eggs, lightly beaten with 1/3 cup water
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Using a mallet, gently beat the chicken breasts to a uniform thickness. (This prevents the chicken breasts from shrinking and promotes even cooking.).
  • Combine the flour, onion powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper in one bowl. Place the egg and water mixture into another. Put the Panko bread crumbs into a third bowl. Dredge chicken with seasoned flour and pass through egg mixture. Shake off excess egg. For an even crispier crust, dredge with flour again and pass through egg mixture one more time.
  • Now completely cover chicken breasts with Panko crumbs, pressing crumbs down gently if needed.
  • Heat oil in frying pan on medium-high heat. Cook for 4 minutes on each side (or until no longer pink inside) and serve.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs that are about 1/2-inch thick. If your chicken breasts or thighs are thicker, pound them to an even thickness before breading.
  • To make the panko breadcrumbs extra crispy, toast them in a 350 degree Fahrenheit oven for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, before using.
  • If you don't have any panko breadcrumbs, you can use regular breadcrumbs, but the schnitzel will not be as crispy.
  • Be sure to press the panko breadcrumbs firmly onto the chicken so that they adhere well.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan when frying the schnitzel. Cook the schnitzel in batches if necessary.
  • If you are using a deep fryer, heat the oil to 375 degrees Fahrenheit before frying the schnitzel.
  • Serve the schnitzel immediately with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or salad.

Conclusion:

Panko-coated chicken schnitzel is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The schnitzel is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and it is sure to be a hit with the whole family. So next time you are looking for a new way to cook chicken, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
