Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Chicken:
    Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board and pat them dry with paper towels.Using a sharp knife, slice each chicken breast horizontally to create two thinner cutlets.Season the chicken cutlets with salt and pepper on both sides.
  • Set Up the Breading Station:
    In a shallow bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten.
  • Bread the Chicken:
    Dip each chicken cutlet into the flour mixture, ensuring both sides are evenly coated.Shake off any excess flour, then dip the cutlet into the beaten eggs, coating it thoroughly. Place the chicken back into the flour mixture, pressing gently to help the coating adhere. Repeat the process for each chicken cutlet.
  • Fry the Chicken:
    Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat.Carefully place the breaded chicken cutlets into the hot oil.Fry for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.Once cooked, transfer the chicken cutlets to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  • Assemble the Sandwich:
    Toast the burger buns if desired.Spread your choice of condiments on the bottom half of each bun.Place a lettuce leaf on top of the condiments.Put a fried chicken cutlet on the lettuce leaf.Top the chicken with a tomato slice and a slice of cheese.Cover with the top half of the bun.
