Description

Crispy Chicken Katsu is a delicious Japanese dish featuring breaded and fried chicken cutlets served with a savory tonkatsu sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups panko breadcrumbs
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • 1/2 cup tonkatsu sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat.
  2. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  3. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, shaking off the excess.
  4. Dip the floured chicken into the beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip off.
  5. Coat the chicken in panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
  6. Fry the chicken in hot oil until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side.
  7. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.
  8. Slice the chicken and serve with tonkatsu sauce.

Notes

  • For extra crunch, double coat the chicken by repeating the egg and breadcrumb steps.
  • Serve with shredded cabbage for a traditional touch.
  • Leftover chicken can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
