A streamlined take on a family-favorite that makes it even more suited for busy weeknights: a 15-minute marinade in yogurt tenderizes the chicken cutlets, while also acting as a 'glue' for crunchy panko breadcrumbs. The cutlets cook quickly in the frying pan and then are ready to be topped with a lemon-y mixed green salad and devoured.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (2 pounds total)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup Greek yogurt
2 cups panko
Vegetable oil, for frying
4 cups trimmed greens, such as arugula, Little Gem lettuce, watercress, or a combination
4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice, plus wedges for serving

Steps:

  • Butterfly and pound chicken breasts to 1/4-inch thickness. Combine chicken and yogurt in a medium bowl, season with salt and pepper, and toss with tongs until chicken is well-coated. Let stand at room temperature 15 minutes (or cover and refrigerate up to 2 hours). Coat chicken with panko, patting to adhere.
  • Heat 1/2 inch vegetable oil in a large straight-sided skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high until a panko crumb sizzles when tossed in. Add half of chicken; cook, rotating with tongs for even browning, until golden brown and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes a side. Transfer to a wire-rack-lined baking sheet; season with salt. (Remove and discard any bits of coating with a slotted spoon before cooking second batch.) Repeat with remaining chicken.
  • Place greens in a bowl; drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately with cutlets and lemon wedges.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken cutlets turned out terrible. They were overcooked and dry.

These chicken cutlets were easy to make, but they didn't have much flavor. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra seasonings and it was much better.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken cutlets turned out perfectly. They were crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. I served them with mashed potatoes and green beans, and it was a delicious meal.

These chicken cutlets were easy to make and very tasty. I used chicken breasts instead of thighs, and they came out great. I will definitely be making these again.

I made these chicken cutlets for dinner last night and they turned out great! The chicken was juicy and tender, and the breading was crispy and flavorful. I will definitely be making these again.
