Dip one chicken slice into the whisked egg, letting any excess drip off.

Repeat the breading process with the remaining chicken slices.

Pour the vegetable oil into a large skillet and heat over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
Około 3 min
12
Carefully place the cutlets in the hot oil, working in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Około 1 min
Wskazówka kucharza: Leave space between cutlets to ensure they fry evenly and become crispy.

Fry for 3-4 minutes per side until each side is deep golden brown and crisp.
Około 8 min

Remove the cooked cutlets from the skillet and transfer to a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain.
