I used 2 large chicken breast halves and added 2 teaspoons of italian seasoning, plus 2 teaspoons grated parmesan and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder to normal breadcrumbs as I did not have italian style ones at hand. Came great!! Thanks for the recipe

    This is a great recipe! I love how moist the chicken turned out and that it utilized ingredients that I always have on hand. We made this using Extra Virgin Olive Oil and dried Minced Garlic - superb!!! All three kids devoured not only the chicken, but also everything else on their plates so they could have seconds! Karen, this is a fantastic recipe. Thank you!

    Hi Karen; Made your chicken cutlets and they were superb. I did not have any Italian Bread Crumbs, so I made my own using dried out Italian Buns. Added to one cup of bread crumbs, 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning, 3/4 teaspoon granulated garlic powder, 1 teaspoon dried dill weed, 3 tablespoons Yellow Corn Meal, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Pounded the chicken breasts to about 1/4 inch thickness, then dipped them into an egg/milk mixuture, then coated them with the bread crumb mixture. Fried them in extra virgin olive oil, and WOW, absolutely excellent. Thank you for sharing this recipe, it is now one of our favorites. I too, made sandwiches the next day on lightly toasted bread, some mayonnaise, mustard and my own homemade Cranberry Sauce with Jalapeno Peppers, SUPERB. "Uncle Bill"

    This recipe was simple to make and very tasty. All three of my children and my husband loved it. I did not have enough Italian bread crumbs on hand so I crushed some dried Stove Top added extra seasoning and mixed it with my bread crumbs. It turned out great. Thanks for the recipe Karen!
