Pollo Milanese
This is an easy dish to make and tends to be a favorite.
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
- 1/8 cup flour
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups bread crumbs Italian seasoned
- oil
- 2 ` lemons
Instructions
- Slice the chicken breasts horizontally into two or three pieces depending on how thick they are. Place them between two sheets of waxed paper and pound until they are very thin, about 3/8”. Dredge each piece in flour and knock off all extra flour.
- Place the two eggs in a broad, shallow bowl and beat well, set aside. Pour breadcrumbs onto a plate or baking sheet. Dip into chicken pieces into the egg and press into the breadcrumbs until the breasts are coated very well.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium to medium high heat. When the oil is ready, place breasts, one or two at a time into the oil and cook until medium brown, not too dark. Turn once and cook on the other side. Remove from the oil and let them drain on a paper towel. Continue until all chicken is cooked. You can keep them warm in the oven until they are ready to serve.
- Slice lemon into wedges and place on serving plate.
