Instructions

  1. 1

    {'id': 'step_0', 'step': 1, 'text': 'Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C). Place a large oven-safe plate on the bottom rack.'}

  2. 2

    {'id': 'step_1', 'step': 2, 'text': 'Dissolve ½ cup salt and ½ cup sugar in water in a 1-quart casserole dish. Place chicken in salt-sugar solution; cover dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.'}

  3. 3

    {'id': 'step_2', 'step': 3, 'text': 'Pat chicken dry; place on a paper towel-lined baking sheet and air-dry for 10 minutes.'}

  4. 4

    {'id': 'step_3', 'step': 4, 'text': 'Place bread in a blender or the bowl of a food processor; blend until crumbly, about 30 seconds. Combine bread crumbs and parsley in a shallow dish.'}

  5. 5

    {'id': 'step_4', 'step': 5, 'text': 'Place flour in a second shallow dish. Beat eggs and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a third shallow dish.'}

  6. 6

    {'id': 'step_5', 'step': 6, 'text': 'Season chicken cutlets with salt and black pepper. Dredge in flour; shake off excess. Dip into egg mixture; lift up so excess egg drips back into the bowl.

  7. 7

    {'id': 'step_6', 'step': 7, 'text': 'Heat remaining oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 2 cutlets; cook until outsides are golden brown, no longer pink in centers, and juices run clear, 2 to 3 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into centers should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer to the warmed plate. Repeat with remaining cutlets.'}
