Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds chicken breasts
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Romano cheese
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1/4 cup avocado oil or olive oil
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven broiler. Prepare chicken breasts by slicing them lengthwise and seasoning with salt and pepper.
  2. Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes: one with flour seasoned with salt and pepper, one with a beaten egg, and the last with panko breadcrumbs mixed with grated Romano cheese and lemon zest.
  3. Coat each chicken piece first in flour, then dip in the egg wash, and finally roll in the panko mixture until evenly coated.
  4. Heat avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook each cutlet for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  5. Once all cutlets are cooked, place them on a baking sheet, top with shredded mozzarella, and broil for 2 to 4 minutes until bubbly.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
