Hearty Breaded Chicken Cutlets
- 3 breasts Chicken breasts
- 7 Green shiso leaves
- 4 slice Sliced cheese
- 1 You can use pizza cheese instead
- 1 Salt and pepper
- 1 Panko
- 100 ml *Flour
- 2 *Eggs
- 50 ml *Water
- Cut the shiso leaves in half, cut the cheese slices into quarters, and set aside.
- Beat the * (flour, egg, water) ingredients together well using a whisk.
- It should be the about same consistency as pancake batter.
- Have the panko ready to go.
- Cut each chicken breast into 4 pieces.
- Slice almost all the way through the middle of each piece of breast meat from Step 4, and butterfly them open.
- Sprinkle salt and pepper onto the opened up surface.
- Place the shiso leaves and cheese on top.
- Close the chicken up with the shiso leaves and cheese inside.
- If the cheese sticks out from the chicken it will melt out, so take care not to let it stick out.
- You don't have to secure it closed with toothpicks.
- Coat the chicken pieces in the batter from step 2.
- Coat with panko.
- Deep fry the chicken pieces starting with the oil at a low temperature.
- If you fry the pieces in very hot oil, since they have a certain thickness they'll get burned on the outside before they are cooked all the way through.
- Don't turn the chicken pieces over until the breaded coating has browned, otherwise it will come off.
- Adjust the heat to about low-medium.
- When a bamboo skewer goes cleanly through a piece, it's done.
- Then, just serve on a dish and enjoy.
- The cheese is melted and creamy, and the shiso leaves are refreshing.
- I can eat so many of these.
