You can make these chicken Milanese in the stove, using a frying pan with about a ¼ inch of vegetable oil to fry them for 3-4 minutes per side. Do not overcrowd the pan so you get a nice golden and crisp crust.

I prefer to use the air fryer, because it’s less messy and clean up is easier… and of course, you use less fat. These come out crispy, flavorful and so delicious! We served them with a cucumber and lettuce salad with creamy mayo and red wine dressing.

Air Fryer Chicken Milanese

Makes 4 servings

Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
⅓ cup all purpose flour
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon cool water
1 ½ cups unseasoned Panko breadcrumbs
¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
kosher salt and black pepper
vegetable oil spray , for air frying

Directions:

Slice chicken breasts in half horizontally to create two thinner halves.
Prepare 3 plates: Place flour in the first with ½ teaspoon each kosher salt and black pepper. In the second, beat the eggs with the cool water and a pinch of salt and pepper. In the third, mix together panko, parmesan cheese, and a pinch of salt.
Bread each chicken cutlet by dredging both sides in flour, then dipping in the egg wash to coat, and finally in the panko, gently pressing the breadcrumbs into the cutlet to adhere. In each step, let the excess coating fall off before moving to the next ingredient.
Spray chicken cutlets on each side with vegetable oil spray. Cook chicken cutlets at 200ºC, flipping once, until chicken is cooked through, and breading is crispy and lightly browned, about 5-6 minutes per side.
