Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup Caesar salad dressing
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Lemon wedges for serving

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound them to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
  3. In a shallow bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and dried oregano. Mix well.
  4. Dip each chicken cutlet into the Caesar dressing, ensuring it is fully coated, then dredge in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
  5. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken cutlets and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
  6. Transfer the browned cutlets to the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F).
  7. Serve the chicken cutlets with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
