I developed this recipe to make tender and moist chicken cutlets. The secret is brining the chicken briefly before breading and frying.
Ingredients
- 4 boneless chicken breasts shopping list
- 4 cups hot, not boiling, water shopping list
- 1/4 cup kosher salt shopping list
- 1 Tablespoon sugar shopping list
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper shopping list
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder shopping list
- 1/4 teaspoon each: dried rosemary, dried marjoram, dried basil shopping list
- 6 ice cubes shopping list
- 3 eggs, beaten with 1 Tablespoon water shopping list
- 2 cups breadcrumbs shopping list
- olive oil for frying shopping list
How to make it
- Stir salt, sugar, herbs and spices into hot water until dissolved.
- Put chicken breasts and ice cubes into brine, making sure chicken is submerged.
- Remove chicken and discard brine after 30 minutes.
- Slice chicken breasts in half horizontally to make 2 thinner cutlets from each breast.
- Heat pan on medium high.
- Dip each chicken cutlet in egg and then breadcrumbs.
- Add oil to pan, and fry cutlets in batches without crowding.
- Enjoy!
