Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 4 pieces chicken breast cutlets thinly sliced
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour for dredging
  • 2 cups breadcrumbs plain or seasoned
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 0.25 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper freshly ground
  • 0.5 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 8 slices bread preferably sourdough or ciabatta
  • 0.25 cup vegetable oil for frying
  • 1 cup lettuce shredded
  • 1 large tomato sliced

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Place each chicken cutlet between plastic wrap and pound to 1/4 inch thick with a meat mallet.
  • Set up a dredging station with three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with a mixture of breadcrumbs, Parmesan, salt, and pepper.
  • Dredge each cutlet in flour, shaking off excess, then dip in egg, and coat thoroughly with breadcrumb mixture.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry cutlets in batches until golden brown and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Mix mayonnaise and Dijon mustard in a small bowl. Spread the mixture on each slice of bread.
  • Assemble the sandwich: add a layer of lettuce, a few slices of tomato, and a chicken cutlet to each sandwich.
  • Top with the remaining bread slices, cut in half, and serve.

Notes

To add a spicy kick, consider adding some hot sauce to the mayonnaise mixture.
