Instructions
Prepare the Coating
Mix grated parmesan, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, salt, and pepper together in a shallow bowl. Press each chicken cutlet firmly into the parmesan mixture coating both sides generously and pressing to adhere.
Heat the Pan
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat until shimmering. The oil needs to be hot enough to immediately sear the coating and create a golden crust when the chicken is added.
Cook the Cutlets
Add coated chicken cutlets to the pan and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side without pressing or moving until deeply golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Rest and Serve
Transfer chicken to a plate and let rest for 2 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges, pasta, or a simple salad for a complete meal.
