Ingredients

4 chicken breasts
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs whisked
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1 cup panko bread crumbs
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon oil
2 tablespoons butter unsalted

Instructions

Pound the chicken breast fillets and season with salt and pepper.
In one bowl, add the flour, in the second bowl, add the eggs, and in the third, mix together the bread crumbs, panko, and parmesan cheese.
Dip the chicken in the flour, shake off any excess, then the eggs, shake off any excess, then in the parmesan/bread crumb mixture. Press the bread crumbs and parmesan cheese into the chicken so it sticks. Repeat the process until all the chicken is crumbed.
Add the oil and butter into a pan or skillet and place over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken and cook for 7-10 minutes, or until golden on both sides.
Remove the chicken from the pan and place them on a plate lined with a paper towel.

Notes

TO STORE: Wrap the cooled chicken breasts tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate them for up to 3 to 4 days.

TO REHEAT: Place chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake at 177°C for 10-12 minutes or until they’re fully reheated. You can also use the microwave but the chicken won't be as crispy.

TO FREEZE: Transfer wrapped chicken breasts to an airtight container or freezer-safe bag and freeze for up to 6 months.
