Ingredients & Equipment You’ll Need

• 2 boneless chicken breasts
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 large eggs
• 2 cups bread crumbs
• �� cup parmesan cheese
• Salt and Pepper to taste
• Vegetable oil for frying

Equipment: Frying pan, Tongs, 3 wide, deep plates.

Chicken: Your main hero for the recipe. Try using skinless & boneless breasts; they are easier to cut, cook and bite into.

Breadcrumbs: These add the wonderful crunch, giving a wholesome texture to each bite. Can’t find any? Crushed cornflakes make a decent substitute.

How To Make Chicken Milanese Bites

1. Start by cutting your chicken breasts into small bite-sized pieces. Season well with salt and pepper.
2. In three separate plates, put flour, beaten eggs and a combo of breadcrumbs and grated parmesan.
3. Dip each piece of chicken first in flour, then eggs, then the breadcrumbs mixture.
4. Once all your bites are ready, heat oil in a frying pan. The oil is ready when a breadcrumb thrown in sizzles.
5. Fry the chicken bites until golden and crispy over medium heat, around 2-3 minutes on each side. Use tongs to turn the bites.
6. Let them cool on a paper towel to help drain excess oil. Serve hot, with a nice tangy dip!

Tips For The Best Results

• Don’t rush the frying; lower heat gives a crispier bite!
• Use a thermometer to ensure chicken is done inside.

Storage Tips

• Use an airtight container and refrigerate (3-4 days).
• Frozen? Just reheat in an oven.
