ingredients
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 tablespoons Water
- 1 1/2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1 1/2 cups Italian Bread Crumbs
- 2 Lemons
- Olive Oil
- 1/4 cups Vegetable or Canola Oil
- Arugula
- 4 pieces thinly sliced Chicken Breasts
- Salt
- Black Pepper
Method
Step 1
Beat eggs with salt and pepper in a shallow dish, adding a tablespoon of water. Spread flour in another dish and bread crumbs in a third dish.
Step 2
Lightly press chicken into the flour to coat and shake off the excess flour. Dip into the beaten egg, then press into bread crumbs. Place the breaded chicken onto a plate while breading the rest.
Step 3
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Pan-fry chicken in batches of 2 or 3 pieces until golden brown and no longer pink in the center, about 2 to 4 minutes per side.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, add rinsed and dried arugula. Toss with a tablespoon of olive oil and squeeze a wedge or 2 of lemon juice, add a pinch of salt and serve on top of the breaded chicken. Shave some fresh parmesan cheese on top and enjoy!
