A delightful twist on a classic chicken schnitzel, infused with fresh lemon and herb flavors.
Prepare the breadcrumb mixture by combining the breadcrumbs, grated parmesan cheese, lemon zest, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish.
Mixing the dry ingredients thoroughly ensures an even distribution of flavors.
In another shallow dish, whisk the eggs until smooth.
Adding a splash of water to the eggs can make the coating process smoother.
Dip each chicken breast into the egg mixture, then coat it with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Let the coated chicken rest for a few minutes to help the coating set.
Heat the butter and olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
Using a combination of butter and oil prevents the butter from burning.
Cook the chicken in the pan, a few pieces at a time, until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side.
Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure even cooking.
Transfer the cooked chicken to a serving platter and garnish with lemon slices and additional parsley.
Serving immediately ensures the chicken remains crispy.
