Description

These Crispy Gluten-Free Chicken Cutlets are packed with flavor and made easy with simple ingredients like gluten-free breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese, making them a delightful choice for a quick and healthy dinner.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 chicken breasts (8 oz each)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup gluten-free flour blend
  • 11/2 cups gluten-free panko-style breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/3 cup neutral-tasting high-heat cooking oil (canola, vegetable, or avocado oil)

Instructions

  1. Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and slice them into strips about 3/4 to 1 inch wide. You should get 4 slices from each chicken breast.
  2. Place a chicken strip cut side up on a cutting board, cover it with plastic wrap, and gently pound it with a meat mallet until thin without tearing.
  3. Transfer the pounded chicken strips to a large platter and repeat with remaining strips.
  4. Lightly season both sides of each chicken cutlet with salt and pepper, then refrigerate while you prepare the breading station.

Notes

For a gluten-free version, ensure all ingredients, especially the flour and breadcrumbs, are certified gluten-free.
Kikkoman gluten-free panko breadcrumbs work best for achieving a crispy texture.
