recipe

  • Step 1
    Crack the egg into a small bowl. Season with salt & pepper. Add the chili powder (optional). Whisk it all together.
  • Step 2
    Add the flour, egg & bread crumbs to 3 shallow dishes (each in its own dish!). Thoroughly dredge the chicken in the flour, then in the egg.
  • Step 3
    Dredge the chicken in the bread crumbs.
  • Step 4
    For a thicker breading, dip again in the egg & bread crumbs!
  • Step 5
    Heat the oil in a pan over medium-high heat. When the oil glistens, add the chicken. Cook for 3 min.
  • Step 6
    Flip over the chicken. Reduce the heat to medium. Cook for another 5 min, or until cooked through & crispy.
  • Step 7
    Transfer the chicken to a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Step 8
    Slice the chicken.
  • Step 9
    Arrange the sliced chicken & baby spinach on a serving plate. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over all. Season the spinach salad with salt, pepper & a drizzle of olive oil. Enjoy!
