This is the recipe I use - with breadcrumbs. I usually double or triple it b/c my kids eat a lot! It is messy to cook, but really delicious, the lemon at the end really makes it great!

Use a meat thermometer, so you don't dry them out - life changing

So much chicken is woody now that the realllllly processed stuff almost has a better mouth feel!
I'm thinking of buying ground chicken (or would buy the pink slime) and then fashion that into cutlets, steam, then do all the breading steps. I think it would be a disaster though!

If you are frying, make sure the pan and oil are good & hot before you put the cutlets in!

Also, if your crowd likes chicken like this, look at recipes for Chicken Francese and Chicken Picatta for some variety

I’m the PP you’re responding to. I agree. I found a chicken supplier that has much better chicken the crappy WF chicken I was getting. I buy a bunch of it and freeze it. Otherwise, I avoid chicken.

Yes, I'm at that point too. I just don't want it if it's going to be the crappy stuff. I would love to find a supplier like this.

My family likes Ina Garten's chicken piccata, you do a few mins or so on the stove and then bake for a bit as well. Agree with pp's who mention importance of the breasts being thin. Final squeeze of lemon on top at the end always helps too.

Here's ina's, they are very edible even without the lemon wine sauce
