Matzo-Crusted Chicken Cutlets image

Using matzo--unleavened flatbread--for the coating makes this easy dinner recipe very Passover-friendly; water crackers are a good substitute.

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 large egg
8 unsalted matzos, crushed (about 3 cups)
2 teaspoons coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
Safflower oil, for frying
4 boneless, skinless chicken cutlets (4 to 5 ounces each), 1/2 inch thick
4 lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Beat egg in a shallow dish. Mix crushed matzos, salt, and pepper in another shallow dish. Heat 1/2 inch of oil in a large cast-iron skillet until it registers 375 degrees on a deep-fry thermometer.
  • Working with 1 at a time, dip cutlets into egg, then into matzo, pressing to adhere and coating both sides. Place 2 cutlets in skillet, and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to paper towels. Repeat with remaining 2 cutlets. Serve immediately with lemon wedges.

This recipe was a great way to use up leftover matzo from Passover. The chicken was crispy and flavorful.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try brining the chicken next time.

I used panko breadcrumbs instead of matzo meal and they were still delicious. This is a versatile recipe that can be easily adapted to your own taste.
