Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 8 slices turkey breast
  • 4 slices Swiss cheese
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil for frying
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Prepare the chicken breasts by pounding them to an even 1/2-inch thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin. Season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
  2. Set up your breading station with three shallow dishes. Place flour in the first, beaten eggs in the second, and mix breadcrumbs with Parmesan cheese in the third.
  3. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, shaking off excess. Dip in egg, then coat thoroughly with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
  4. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry chicken for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a baking sheet.
  5. Top each chicken cutlet with 2 slices of turkey breast and 1 slice of Swiss cheese. Broil for 2-3 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
  6. While chicken is broiling, whisk together all honey mustard sauce ingredients in a small bowl until smooth.
  7. Drizzle the honey mustard sauce over the finished chicken cutlets and serve immediately.

Notes

For the crispiest results, make sure your oil is properly heated before adding the chicken - it should sizzle immediately when you add a breadcrumb. You can bake the breaded chicken at 400°F for 20-25 minutes instead of frying for a lighter option.
