in half, but stop about ½ inch before going
all the way through - open it like a book and
voila!
Instructions
In a shallow bowl, add flour, along with a pinch
of salt, and mix. In another shallow bowl, add
egg and mustard. Whisk until well combined. In
your final shallow bowl, add panko
breadcrumbs, white cheddar cheese, a pinch of
salt, and pepper. Mix well.
Pat your chicken breasts with a paper towel
until dry. Place each chicken breast in the flour
mixture until fully coated, followed by the egg
mixture, and then the breadcrumb mixture.
Press the breadcrumbs into the chicken until
they’re fully coating your chicken breast.
CHEDDAR CHICKEN CUTLETS (COOK)
Preheat your oven to 375ºF.
In a large cast-iron skillet on medium-high heat,
add enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan
(oil filling ¼ inch up the side of the pan is
preferred). Once oil is 375ºF-400ºF, add
chicken cutlets, one at a time (to prevent
overcrowding).
Cook chicken on both sides until golden brown
(around 3-4 minutes per side). Once both sides
are golden brown and crispy, season with a
pinch of kosher salt and then transfer to a
sheet tray and finish cooking in the oven until
the center reaches 165ºF (around 2-3 minutes).
CRISPY RANCH POTATO SALAD
In the same hot oil used to cook your chicken
cutlets, cook your potatoes on medium-high
heat (if there’s not enough oil to coat the
bottom of your pan, add more).
Cook potatoes until golden brown on all sides.
Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Set aside.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add cabbage, a
small pinch of salt, and a large spoonful of
ranch. Mix the cabbage until fully coated in
ranch, then stir in crispy potatoes.
TO PLATE:
Add a “swoosh” of ranch on each plate and top
