Step by Step Method

Step 1

Set the flour, eggs and panko in three separate shallow bowls. Season the chicken cutlets with salt and pepper. Dredge the chicken in the flour, shaking off any excess, then dip in the eggs and coat thoroughly with the panko, pressing lightly to adhere.

Step 2

In each of 2 large skillets, heat 1/4 cup of the canola oil. Add the chicken and cook over moderately high heat, turning once, until golden and crispy, about 3 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a paper towel-lined baking sheet and sprinkle with salt.

Step 3

Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt the butter and cook over moderately high heat until browned and nutty, about 4 minutes. Stir in the capers, lemon juice and parsley; spoon over the chicken and serve.

There should be more stars - this was SO good! I made it for 2, so cut down the ingredients somewhat but made sure I wasn't skimping on the sauce. It turned out to be just the right amount and so good!

I had large chicken breasts so I pounded them out till they were thin so they would cook evenly and we loved this for dinner with Herb Crusted Roasted Red Potatoes and Caesar Salad! Lovely meal!
