Ingredients

2 boneless chicken breasts
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon milk
1 cup panko bread crumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
Vegetable oil for frying
1 lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions

1 Trim chicken of any unwanted fat. Horizontally cut chicken in half to make 2 thin cutlets per chicken breast. Lay cut chicken on countertop between two layers of plastic wrap. Pound out chicken until 1/4-1/2 inch thick. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

2 Spread flour into a shallow dish. In a separate shallow dish, whisk eggs together with milk. In an additional separate shallow dish, mix together Panko bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, and Italian seasonings.

3 Pour about 1-2 inches of vegetable oil into a deep, large skillet. Bring oil to 350-375 degrees Fahrenheit.

4 While oil is coming to temperature, dredge chicken in flour to coat, then immediately dip into eggs, followed by panko mixture. Ensuring all parts of chicken are evenly coated.

5 Place breaded chicken into the hot oil and fry 2-3 minutes. Work in batches if needed, based on size of pan. Chicken should not crowd the pan.

6 Gently flip and cook for an additional 2-4 minutes until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 Fahrenheit, and is browned and crisp.

7 Remove from oil and let rest for 5 minutes. Serve with a lemon wedge and enjoy!

1 Preheat an air fryer to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
