Chicken Milanese

These crispy chicken breasts are prepared using a technique called panfrying. The chicken is flattened into cutlets and coated with flour, beaten eggs, and a mixture of panko and Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. Then the chicken is quickly fried in a small amount of oil over high heat, producing a golden brown crust on both sides.
