I use half panko breadcrumbs for extra crunch, and half Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs for flavor. Serve it like they do in Milan, on a bed of undressed baby greens or arugula with lemon wedges.<\/p>\n<p>4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced or pounded to 1\/2-inch thickness<br \/>\n1\/2 cup all-purpose flour<br \/>\n2 large egg whites<br \/>\n1 cup Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs<br \/>\n1 cup panko breadcrumbs<br \/>\n2 tablespoons Pecorino Romano, Parmigiano-Reggiano, or Parmesan cheese, freshly grated<br \/>\n1\/4 cup finely chopped fresh Italian parsley<br \/>\n3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil<br \/>\n1\/2 lemon<\/p>\n<p>1. Pat chicken breasts dry with paper towel. Put flour in shallow dish. Set aside. Whisk egg whites in new shallow dish. Set aside. Mix Italian breadcrumbs, panko, cheese, and parsley in third shallow dish. Set aside.<\/p>\n<p>2. Coat each chicken breast one at a time. First, dredge the chicken in flour, shaking off any excess, then dip chicken in egg. Then press chicken into breadcrumb mixture, turning to coat evenly. Set the coated chicken on a wire cooling rack and let stand for 5 minutes to set the coating so it stays on during cooking.<\/p>\n<p>3. Heat the oil in a large saut\u00e9 pan over medium-high heat. Saut\u00e9 the chicken for 3 to 5 minutes on each side, until lightly browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted through the side of a breast half into the center reads 165\u00baF.<\/p>\n<p>4. Serve immediately with fresh lemon squeezed over the top.<\/p>\n<table style=\"border: 1px solid #ffffff;\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ffffff;\" width=\"40\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ffffff;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1213\" src=\"http:\/\/heather-maclean.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/FFF-cover.jpg\" alt=\"FFF-cover\" width=\"70\" height=\"90\" \/><\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ffffff;\"><em>&#8211; From <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/0762445440\/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=0762445440&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=heathermaclea-20\" target=\"_blank\">Fabulicious!: Fast &amp; Fit<\/a><\/em><br \/>\nby Teresa Giudice with Heather Maclean<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ffffff;\" width=\"20\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2773,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13,10],"tags":[34,25,30],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.heather-maclean.com\/heathermacleancooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1210"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.heather-maclean.com\/heathermacleancooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.heather-maclean.com\/heathermacleancooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.heather-maclean.com\/heathermacleancooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.heather-maclean.com\/heathermacleancooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1210"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/www.heather-maclean.com\/heathermacleancooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1210\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3000,"href":"https:\/\/www.heather-maclean.com\/heathermacleancooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1210\/revisions\/3000"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.heather-maclean.com\/heathermacleancooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2773"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.heather-maclean.com\/heathermacleancooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1210"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.heather-maclean.com\/heathermacleancooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1210"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.heather-maclean.com\/heathermacleancooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1210"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
