Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Chicken Katsu.
Step 1
Start by generously seasoning both sides of your chicken breasts with salt and pepper, giving them a flavorful base.
Step 2
Next, create a simple breading station using three shallow dishes: fill one with flour, another with a beaten egg, and the last with crispy panko bread crumbs.
Step 3
Take each chicken breast and first coat it in flour, making sure to shake off any excess.
Step 4
Then, dip it into the beaten egg, allowing any extra to drip off before pressing it firmly into the panko crumbs, ensuring it’s fully coated on both sides for that perfect crunch.
Step 5
Now, grab a large skillet and heat some oil over medium-high heat until it’s nice and hot.
Step 6
Carefully place the breaded chicken breasts into the sizzling oil, frying them for about 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
Step 7
You’re looking for a beautiful golden brown color and for the chicken to be cooked through.
Step 8
Once they’re perfectly fried, transfer the chicken to a plate lined with paper towels to soak up any excess oil.
Step 9
This step not only keeps your chicken crispy but also makes for a delightful dining experience.
Step 10
Enjoy your deliciously crispy chicken!.
