🥘 Ingredients
Chicken
  • 4 boneless chicken breasts (pounded to 1/4-inch)
Breading
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs (beaten)
  • 1 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
Serving
  • 1 lemon (cut into wedges)
📝 Instructions
  1. Pound chicken breasts to even 1/4-inch thickness between plastic wrap. Shared 💡 Even thickness = perfectly uniform cooking.
  2. Set up breading station: flour in dish 1, beaten eggs in dish 2, panko mixed with Parmesan, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in dish 3. Shared 💡 Season the panko, not the chicken, for better flavor distribution.
  3. Dredge each cutlet in flour (shake excess), dip in egg, then press firmly into panko mixture, coating both sides well. Shared 💡 Press firmly — good adhesion makes the crust.
  4. Preheat Ninja on Air Fry at 390°F. Spray both sides of breaded cutlets generously with cooking spray. Shared 💡 Oil spray is essential — dry spots will not brown.
  5. Place in pan single layer. Cook 5 minutes per side until deep golden brown and internal temp reaches 165°F. Top Oven 💡 Flip gently with a wide spatula to preserve crust.
  6. Serve immediately with lemon wedges and a sprinkle of fresh parsley. Shared 💡 Schnitzel is best right out of the pan while super crispy.
💡 Ninja Tips

Pound chicken to even 1/4-inch thickness. Spray breading thoroughly with oil — unsprayed panko stays pale. Panko gives the crispiest result.
