- Handful Freshly Chopped Parsley
- 35 g Parmesan Cheese ⅓-¼ Cup

- Place the flour on a flat plate.
- Mix the breadcrumbs, parsley and parmesan cheese in a large flat baking dish.
- Lightly beat the eggs in a large flat baking dish.
- Heat 1-2cm (½-¾") of cooking oil in a large 35cm or 14" pan over a medium heat until it reaches 170°C or 340°F.
- Just before you are ready to fry, season the chicken cutlets with salt and pepper, dip them into the flour, then the egg, and finally into the breadcrumb mix.
- Fry the chicken in the hot oil for around 2½-3 minutes on each side or until it is golden and the chicken is cooked through.
