Scale
- 4 boneless chicken breasts, pounded thin
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 3 large eggs, whisked
- 1 ½ cups Italian-style panko breadcrumbs
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Neutral oil (vegetable or canola) for shallow frying
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes
- 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- ¼ cup dry white wine
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp lemon zest
- 1 ½ cups fresh basil leaves, thinly sliced (chiffonade)
- 1 ball burrata, torn into pieces
- 2 tbsp balsamic glaze
Instructions
- Prepare the chicken by pounding each breast to an even thickness, seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Bread the cutlets in flour, eggs, and panko breadcrumbs.
- Fry the cutlets in hot oil until golden brown and cooked through.
- Make the tomato basil topping in the same skillet by cooking tomatoes, garlic, and seasoning.
