Thank you for your attention to detail with this classic recipe. I have made this three times, and my family absolutely loves it. I feel like a rock star every time I make it. The only additional step I added was using a baking rack in the oven to keep chicken crispy. I've watched all your videos, and I am making my way through all of your delicious recipes. Thank you for making me look so good in the kitchen! ❤😊

@@Asimplepalate if you’re in a pinch, the best store-bought breadcrumbs are Vigo Italian style. Even if I use those, I also add fresh Parmesan cheese. I also noticed, that you don’t do the chicken super thin. I don’t do that either. My father used to do it like that. And it was just too thin and it would dry out easy. He also liked it well done. So he would leave in the oil longer. He was a butcher, and he was deathly afraid of salmonella. My father and my grandparents were born in Corleone Sicily ! ☮️💜😊
Going to make this tonight!

I love her pepper grinder. No one here to judge: if you have to use "store bought" crumbs go for it. And it's all about that breading and the Parm cheese IN the breading. Interesting. My mom would do a breaded pork tenderloin--similar to a cutlet (Czech/German thing--she had to cook them like dad's mom did..and she did--old world stuff) delicious. Thank you.

Thanks so much! And store-bought breadcrumbs are never frowned upon here:) breaded pork cutlets sound delicious!
Wheat germ bread crumbs--so healthy and tasty. Could you show us table setting ideas, such as your rustic pottery plates? If serving a pureed soup, is it okay to put a small bowl of soup next to the dinner plate, and guests eat both at the same time?
I’ve been making this almost exactly the same, but I don’t know how to make my own breadcrumbs. Maybe a KZread short to show us your way? Also, I had before just cooked the chicken in the pan and didn’t just brown and bake in the oven, so I’m definitely going try it your way.

If I’m trying to reduce carbs, you suggest using almond flour and using ground pork rinds that are ground up instead of breadcrumbs? Most breadcrumbs are high and carbs I have noticed. Thank you.

Can you tenderize after you slice the chicken breast ?
@Asimplepalate
Ай бұрын
yes! a lot of people tenderize after slicing. I just do it before! And I used a cast iron skillet (this one c.c8.io/jydy2uI) but you can use a stainless steel one too!
I'd be fraid I would tenderize the chicken too thin, then to cut it in half would be impossible. I think I would cut the chickens in half first since they're fatter out of the package, then beat the heck out of the chickens to tenderize them. But this is how my mom would bread many meats. Flour, egg, then graded stale bread from an old loaf of Italian bread/ We too never bought ready made breadcrumbs, and that's the best way. Oh, and by the way,,, THUMBS UP!!! PEOPLE, DON'T FORGET TO GIVE THIS GAL A THUMBS UP FOR HER HARD EFFORTS IIN PREPARING THIS VIDEO WHETHER YOU MAKE IT OR NOT. IT JUST TAKES A SECOND TO HIT THE THUMB, AND THAT'S WHAT SHE IS TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH ALONG WITH PROVIDING YOU AN EASY WAY TO MAKE A CHICKEN DISH FOR YOUR FAMILY.
