Instructions

1

Clean the chicken fillets thoroughly and pat them completely dry with paper towels. Season evenly on all sides with salt, pepper, and chicken seasoning or garlic powder.

2

Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat lightly until smooth and well combined.

3

Set up a breading station: place the breadcrumbs in one shallow dish, the beaten eggs in a second dish, and the crushed cornflakes in a third.

4

Coat each chicken fillet first in breadcrumbs, pressing lightly to adhere. Dip it into the beaten eggs, then press firmly into the cornflakes to create a thick, even crust.

5

Heat the cooking oil in a deep pan over medium heat. When the oil is hot but not smoking, carefully add the fillets one at a time.

6

Fry the chicken until golden brown and crispy on the outside and fully cooked inside, about 4–5 minutes per side depending on thickness.

7

Transfer the cooked fillets to a sieve or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

8

In a small bowl, combine the chopped parsley, onion, and tomato slices. Drizzle with olive oil and toss gently to combine.

9

Arrange the crispy chicken fillets on a serving platter and serve hot with the fresh parsley salad on the side.
