- We love chicken cutlets!
- It's not really the healthiest meal though. We discovered a simple recipe to substitute most of the bread crumbs with flaxseed and wheat germ. Try a healthier alternative to breaded chicken cutlets. These are delicious!
- Ingredients
- (When you can, also try to use organic ingredients.)
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1/3 cup whole DHA milk
- 1/2 cup olive or canola oil, for shallow frying
- Bread Crumb Mixture:
- 1/2 cup bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup flaxseed
- 1/2 cup wheat germ
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Directions
- Mix eggs and milk in small bowl
- Mix bread crumb mixture together on sheet of wax paper
- Dip chicken cutlets into egg batter, then bread crumb mixture
- Heat oil in large skillet, fry chicken cutlets until golden brown and cooked through
Enjoy!
I tried out these chicken cutlets the other night and I L-O-V-E-D them! I'm new at this healthy food thing and this recipe was a great way to incorporate something healthy into a meal that we already loved. You can't taste the difference and I actually think that the wheat germ or flaxseed made the breading even crispier which i liked. This will definately become a new staple in our dinner rotation.
