Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts, cut in half
  • 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour
  • 3 large eggs (150g)
  • 2 Tbsp water (29g)
  • 2.5 cups (250g) panko breadcrumbs
  • Kosher salt to taste
  • Katsu sauce for serving
  • Togarashi to season
  • Lemon wedges for serving

Directions

  1. Preheat vegetable oil in a heavy bottomed pot to 350°F (175°).
  2. Cut chicken breasts in half lengthwise.
  3. Prepare your 3-step breading station by placing all-purpose flour, panko, and egg wash into separate bowls.
  4. Season the chicken breast with kosher salt and let sit for 5 minutes.
  5. Dredge the pork in the all-purpose flour, then the egg wash, then the breadcrumbs. Repeat for each cutlet. Make sure it is fully coated at each stage.
  6. In batches, cook each breaded breast for 6-8 minutes or until golden brown and fully cooked inside. Transfer cooked chicken to a wire rack and immediately season with kosher salt.
  7. Drizzle with tonkatsu sauce and enjoy.
