Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

4 chicken cutlets, each 4 to 5 ounces and 1/4-inch thick
Indian Yogurt Marinade
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 cups panko, lightly crushed by hand
2 large eggs
Sunflower or other neutral-tasting oil, for frying
Lime wedges, for serving
Fresh cilantro, for serving
Thinly sliced onion, for serving

Steps:

Marinate cutlets: Place cutlets in a shallow dish and pour marinade over, turning the chicken to thoroughly coat. Cover and marinate overnight in the refrigerator. Remove cutlets from the marinade and wipe with paper towels to remove any marinade that might be clinging to them (you want them to be dry before dredging).
Bread cutlets: Heat oven to 200 degrees while you prepare the three components of the breading. Place flour in a shallow dish and whisk to combine with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. In another shallow dish, whisk to combine panko with 1 teaspoon salt. Lightly beat eggs in a wide, shallow bowl. Dredge one cutlet at a time in the seasoned flour, turning to coat, then shake off excess. Next dip in the eggs, again making sure to coat completely and to allow the excess to drip back into bowl. Then coat with panko, patting the cutlets firmly so the coating adheres but being careful not to coat too thickly. Place coated cutlets on piece of parchment paper or a large baking sheet.
Pan-fry: Heat 1/4 inch oil in a large skillet on medium heat until it reaches 350 degrees. Working in batches to avoid crowding the pan, cook cutlets until golden brown on the bottom, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip with a flexible thin spatula and fry until the other side is golden brown and cutlets are cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes more, monitoring temperature of oil to maintain 350 degrees. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with a double layer of paper towels and keep warm in the oven.
Serve: Arrange cutlets on a platter. Garnish with lime wedges, cilantro, and onion.

Tips:

To make the chicken extra flavorful, marinate it for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
If you don't have time to marinate the chicken, you can still make a delicious dish by simply seasoning it with the spices and yogurt.
You can adjust the amount of spices to your liking. If you like a milder dish, use less spice. If you like a spicier dish, use more spice.
Be sure to cook the chicken thoroughly. Chicken is safe to eat when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius).
Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as rice, vegetables, or naan bread.

Chicken marinade is a great way to add flavor and moisture to your chicken dishes. With so many different recipes to choose from, you're sure to find one that you'll love. So next time you're cooking chicken, be sure to try one of these delicious marinades.
