Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 8 oz fresh burrata cheese
- ¼ cup fresh basil leaves
- ½ cup olive oil (for frying)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Place each chicken breast between plastic wrap and gently pound to about half an inch thick for even cooking.
- Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls: one with seasoned flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs.
- Dredge each chicken breast in the flour, dip in the egg mixture, then coat with panko breadcrumbs.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until hot (about 350°F). Fry the breaded chicken for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Transfer to paper towels to drain excess oil, then top each piece with burrata cheese while still warm.
- Garnish with fresh basil and serve immediately.
