Ingredients

  • 2 Large Boneless Chicken breast
  • ¼ cup oil

  • 2 tablespoons Flour
  • 2 teaspoons Water
  • 1 cup Freshly grated parmesan
  • ½ cup Breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
  • ¼ teaspoon Pepper
  • ½ teaspoon Salt

Instructions

  • Slice each chicken breast in half horizontally to make 4 fillets(cutlets). After cutting, If it is thick around the edge, pound it gently for uniform thickness.
  • In a bowl mix mayo, sriracha, flour, and water. Add chicken and coat it well with the mixture.
  • In a separate bowl, mix parmesan cheese, breadcrumb, and Italian Seasoning and keep it aside.
  • Heat oil in a non-stick pan ( non stick pan is a must, else the chicken might stick to the pan).
  • Using a fork or kitchen tong lift chicken breast, shake off extra Mayo coating, dredge in Parmesan mixture. Press gently to coat the chicken then turn and repeat.
  • Place coated chicken breast on hot skillet without crowding it.
  • Fry chicken on medium heat for 4 minutes. Let the coating become crispy and golden. Don't turn or disturb the chicken before the above mentioned time else the coating might peel off.

  • Serve with a fresh salad or favourite side.
