Ingredients

Instructions

  • Look over your chicken breast cutlets and make sure they are evenly sized. Pound out any areas that are thicker.
  • In a shallow bowl add flour, kosher salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
  • Next to the flour add the whisked eggs to a shallow dish and the panko breadcrumbs to a different shallow dish. At this point, you should have 3 shallow containers full of coating ingredients.
  • Coat the cutlets in flour and shake off any excess flour.
  • Dip the floured cutlet into the whisked eggs and coat in panko breadcrumbs. Continue until all the cutlets have been coated.
  • In a large 12-inch skillet add 4 tablespoons of olive oil and set over medium heat.
  • When the oil is hot add the cutlets and cook until golden brown. About 5 minutes per side depending on size and thickness. You may have to cook the cutlets in two batches depending on size.
  • After the cutlets have been cooked add them to a baking sheet and place the thinly sliced mozzarella on the top.
  • Place the sheet pan under the broil to help melt the cheese, about 5 minutes. Keep an eye on the chicken as it can burn quickly.
  • While the cheese is melting, wipe out the skillet you used to cook the chicken, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and set over medium-high heat.
  • When the oil is hot add the tomatoes and the garlic.
  • Saute until the tomatoes just start to soften. Season with kosher salt and black pepper.
  • Add the spiralized zucchini (zoodles) to the tomato mixture and toss to combine. Remove from heat.
  • To serve divide the zucchini/tomato mixture between 4 plates and top each plate with 1 chicken breast. Sprinkle with fresh basil and Parmesan cheese.
  • Leftovers can be easily stored in airtight containers and kept in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
