LIZZIE’S CHICKEN CUTLETS

LIZZIE’S CHICKEN CUTLETS

Ingredients

Four 6- to 8-ounce boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder

4 teaspoons sweet paprika

2 teaspoons yellow curry powder

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs

3 large eggs, beaten

2 tablespoons grainy mustard

Olive oil, for cooking

Directions

  1. Set up your grill for cooking with direct and indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only.
  2. Cut each chicken breast in half lengthwise, so you have thinner chicken cutlets. Cover the chicken breasts with plastic wrap and gently pound out to an even thickness, about 1/4 inch.
  3. To a mixing bowl, add the flour, garlic powder, 2 teaspoons paprika and 1 teaspoon curry powder. Season with salt and pepper and whisk to combine well. To another mixing bowl, add the breadcrumbs, remaining 2 teaspoons paprika and remaining teaspoon curry powder. Season with salt and pepper and whisk to combine well. Whisk together the eggs and mustard in another mixing bowl.
  4. Place a large cast-iron pan on the direct-heat side of the grill to preheat. Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides. Dredge the chicken in the flour, then the egg, then the breadcrumb mixture, shaking off any excess in between. When the pan is hot, add enough olive oil so that it’s 1/2-inch deep. Bring the oil to 350 degrees F, then add half the chicken, leaving plenty of space in between. Cook the chicken until golden brown, then flip and brown on the other side, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove the chicken to a cooling rack set over a baking sheet to drain off any extra oil. Repeat with the remaining chicken, adding additional olive oil to the pan, if needed. Serve and enjoy!
  5. Use with Marcella Hazan Tomato Sauce
