2
|
Pour bread crumbs into a shallow dish and set aside.
3
|
Pat chicken dry with a paper towel.
4
|
Place the chicken on a cutting board, then slice through the middle (as if you were to butterfly each chicken breast, but slice all the way through).

Season chicken with salt and pepper.
6
|
Spread approximately 1 Tablespoon of mayonnaise on one side of the chicken breasts.

8
|
Remove breaded chicken to a clean plate and repeat breading process with all chicken halves.
9

Place oil in a skillet over medium heat.
10
|

Remove the chicken to a 9″x16″ casserole dish.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Pound for Even Thickness 🔨Use a meat mallet to pound chicken breasts to uniform ¼-inch thickness, ensuring even cooking and preventing dry edges while keeping the center juicy.
- Mayo-Based Coating Secret 🥄Mix mayonnaise with a pinch of salt and pepper, then brush it on the chicken before dredging in panko for superior adhesion and extra-crispy, golden results.
- Double-Dredge Technique ✨After the initial panko coating, lightly spray or brush with mayo again and add a second thin layer of panko for an ultra-crunchy, restaurant-quality crust.
- Oil Temperature is Critical 🌡️Heat oil to 350°F before cooking—use a thermometer to avoid soggy breading from cooler oil or burnt coating from overheated oil.
- Rest Before Serving ⏱️Let finished cutlets rest on a wire rack for 2-3 minutes to maintain crispness and allow juices to settle, preventing a soggy bottom.
