Crispy Baked Chicken Cutlets

Step 1

To prepare the cutlets, pound each chicken breast to an even 1/4 inch thickness.

Step 2

Next, rub the chicken with Italian seasoning, salt, pepper and olive oil. If time allows, marinate it for 1h to overnight. This will give you the most tender and moist chicken.

Step 3

Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, a pinch of salt and pepper.

Step 4

In a shallow dish, combine the garlic powder, panko with parmesan and smoked paprika. Dip the chicken cutlets into the egg mixture, then dredge it into the panko mixture, lightly pressing to coat

Step 5

Place the chicken onto the prepared baking sheet and spray with cooking oil spray. Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes, then flip the chicken cutlets and bake for 5-8minutes more, or until golden and cooked through.

Step 6

Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley, and serve immediately.
