Ingredients
  

  • 1 Pound Chicken Breast, sliced thin
  • 2 large Eggs
  • ¼ Cup Milk
  • 1 ½ Cups Seasoned Breadcrumbs
  • Salt And Pepper, to taste
  • 1 Tbs Garlic Powder
  • Canola Oil

Instructions
 

  • Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  • In a shallow bowl, beat the eggs and milk together.
  • In another shallow bowl, add the breadcrumbs.
  • Dip the chicken breast into the egg mixture, ensuring it's completely coated. Let the excess egg drip off.
  • Now, coat the chicken generously with breadcrumbs on both sides.
  • In a large frying pan, add enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan with about ½ inch of oil. Heat the oil to 350 degrees Fahrenheit over medium-high heat.
  • Fry the cutlets on both sides for about 3 minutes or until they are golden brown and cooked through. The chicken is thin and wont need much time to fry in the oil at all.
  • When the chicken is done, remove it from the oil and let it cool on a wire rack or paper towels. Immediately sprinkle a little more salt on them and serve warm.
