المقادير
  

  • 4 flattened chicken breast fillets
  • 1 cup flour
  • 2 beaten eggs
  • 2 cups breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper
  • Oil for frying
  • Lemon to serve

Method
 

  1. Season the chicken fillets with salt, pepper, garlic, and paprika, then let them rest for a little while.
  2. Set up three plates: the first with flour, the second with beaten egg, and the third with breadcrumbs.
  3. Coat each fillet in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs, pressing firmly so the coating sticks well.
  4. Heat the oil over medium heat and fry the fillets until golden on both sides and the chicken is cooked through.
  5. Lift the escalopes onto paper towels to drain off the excess oil.
  6. Serve hot with lemon wedges and fries or a salad.

ملاحظات

Medium-temperature oil guarantees a golden crust and chicken cooked through, without burning.
Pressing the breadcrumbs firmly makes the crust hold together better.
You can also bake the escalopes in the oven for a lighter version, after brushing them with a little oil.
