• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Olive oil spray or cooking spray
Instructions:
STEP 1: PREPARE CHICKEN
1. If the chicken breasts are thick, pound them with a meat mallet or rolling pin until they are an even thickness
of about 1cm. This ensures even cooking.
STEP 2: DREDGING STATION
1. Prepare three flat plates for the dredging process:
o First course: Flour seasoned with salt and pepper.o Second course: Beaten eggs.

2.Dip in beaten eggs.
3. Press into the breadcrumb mixture, making sure the chicken is completely coated.
STEP 4: FRYER
PREHEAT 1. Preheat your deep fryer to 375°F (190°C).This step may vary depending on the fryer model.
STEP 5: COOK
1. Spray the air fryer basket with olive oil spray to prevent sticking.
2. Place the chicken cutlets in a single layer in the basket.Depending on the size of your deep fryer, you may
need to work in multiple batches.
3. Lightly spray the top of the chicken with olive oil spray. This creates a golden, crispy crust.
4.Cook for about 6 minutes, then flip the chops over and drizzle the other side with oil. Continue cooking for
another 6 to 8 minutes or until the chicken is golden brown and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
STEP 6: SERVE

2.Serve your air fryer chicken schnitzels with a side dish of your choice, such as a fresh salad, roasted vegetables
or over pasta.
