Ingredients

Scale

1 cup flour
2 large eggs
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
8 oz fresh burrata cheese
1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
Zest of 1 lemon
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil (for frying)

Instructions

Tenderize the chicken breasts by placing them between two pieces of plastic wrap and pounding them to about half an inch thick.
Set up a dredging station with flour, beaten eggs, and panko breadcrumbs.
Coat each chicken breast in flour, dip in eggs, and press into breadcrumbs until fully coated.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat until shimmering (about 350°F).
Fry each breaded chicken breast for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
Top each piece with burrata cheese, allowing it to melt slightly before garnishing with basil and lemon zest.
