Instructions

Marinating the chicken cutlets

  • Debone and remove the skin from chicken thigh. Pound with a kitchen mallet or rolling pin then wash in running water and set aside.
  • In a bowl, add marinating ingredients. Beat with a wire whisk to incorporate.
  • Submerge chicken cutlets and marinate for 1 hour or overnight in the refrigerator.

Making the breading

  • In a bowl, add all ingredients and mix well to combine.

Cooking the breaded chicken cutlets

  • Remove chicken from the fridge 20-30 minutes before cooking.
  • Take out chicken cutlets from the marinade and place it in a plate. Save the marinade for later use.
  • Heat cooking oil (approx. ¼ inch deep) in a pan in medium-high heat.
  • Take one cutlet and dredge into the breading. Shake off excess breading.
  • Dip into the marinade sauce and dredge again into the breading.
  • Fry the chicken in batches to avoid overcrowding (NOTE: This will depend on the size of the pan/skillet you are using.) Cook until golden or 3-5 minutes
  • Flip the chicken to cook the other side for 3 minutes or until equally golden.
  • Transfer cooked chicken in a plate lined with a kitchen towel to absorb excess oil.
  • Serve and Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce. Bon Appetit!
