Helpful Tips
Opt for thin chicken cutlets to ensure quick and even cooking. Follow our instructions for slicing chicken breasts into cutlets or purchase pre-cut ones from the store.
To prevent mess and splatters, place the chicken cutlets between sheets of plastic or parchment paper before pounding them to the desired thickness.
Gently and evenly pound the cutlets to ensure they cook evenly and don't tear.
Allow the meat to marinate for a minimum of 15 minutes to enhance flavor.
While olive oil is recommended for frying, you can also use sunflower oil or your preferred vegetable oil for a tasty alternative.
