Crisp Chicken Cutlets
We use Japanese panko breadcrumbs for these pan-fried chicken cutlets. Panko has a coarse, fluffy texture that cooks up remarkably light and crisp. We add flavor by mixing a spice blend into the panko before coating the chicken. Look for cutlets that are about ¼ inch thick so they cook through at the same speed the breading browns. Serve with lemon or lime wedges or with a simple sauce (see below). The cutlets also are terrific made into sandwiches, topped with a crisp cabbage slaw.
Tangy Soy-Sesame Sauce
In a small bowl, stir together ½ cup soy sauce, ¼ cup unseasoned rice vinegar and 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil. Makes ¾ cup.
Yogurt-Chutney Sauce
In a small bowl, stir together 1 cup whole-milk plain yogurt, 3 tablespoons mango chutney, ½ teaspoon kosher salt and ½ teaspoon ground black pepper. Makes 1¼ cups.
Sour Cream and Lime Sauce
In a small bowl, stir together 1 cup sour cream, the grated zest and juice of 1 lime, ½ teaspoon kosher salt and ½ teaspoon ground black pepper. Makes 1 cup.
Yogurt-Tahini Sauce
In a small bowl, stir together 1 cup whole-milk plain yogurt, 2 tablespoons tahini, ½ teaspoon kosher salt and ½ teaspoon ground black pepper. Makes about 1 cup.
Sriracha-Mayo Sauce
In a small bowl, stir together 2 tablespoons Sriracha and ⅓ cup each mayonnaise and ketchup. Makes ¾ cup.

Hi Sean -
The oil will shimmer at any temperature on your stovetop it just varies on how long it will take. Medium-high will probably get you there fastest without over browning the cutlets. Assuming the cutlets are 1/4-inch thick as recommended in the recipe, they should only take a couple minutes per side. We recommend following the visual clues - browned and cooked through - rather than times since everyone's stovetop has a slightly different heat output.
Best,
The Milk Street Team
Could this be done in an air fryer with less oil?
