4 servings
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 oz each)
Chef's tipChoose an unbreaded plant-based cutlet and cook it according to its package - ignore the recipe's raw-chicken cooking times and temperatures - then use it where the cooked chicken goes. - 2 tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup plain breadcrumbs
- ½ cup parmesan cheese, finely grated
Chef's tipChoose a vegan parmesan in the form the recipe uses - grated for sprinkling and sauces, a firm wedge for shaving or melting. - 1 tsp dried basil
- 1 tsp dried parsley
- ¼ tsp sweet paprika
For serving
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly coat it with cooking spray.

Place each chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet or rolling pin to an even thickness of about 3/4 inch. This ensures the breasts cook evenly.
