Ingredients

▢ 450 g ground chicken
▢ 1 tablespoon all-purpose seasoning with salt
▢ 1 medium egg
▢ 85 g panko breadcrumbs

Instructions

Add the 450 g ground chicken, 1 tablespoon all-purpose seasoning, 1 medium egg, and 64 g Panko Breadcrumbs to a large bowl. Mix gently until evenly combined.
Transfer the mixture to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover it with another sheet of parchment paper, then use your hands to press it into a thin, even layer. Remove the top parchment.
Sprinkle the remaining 21 g Panko Breadcrumbs evenly over the chicken. Press them down lightly so they adhere.
Bake the ground chicken cutlets at 220 °C for 12 minutes, then broil at 200 °C for 4 minutes or until golden and the center reaches an internal temperature of 74 °C. Cut into four servings or smaller pieces of your preferred size.

Notes

All-purpose seasoning: Use a blend containing salt, garlic, onion, and black pepper. This seasons the chicken without requiring separate spices.

Divide the panko: Mix 85 g into the chicken and reserve 21 g for the topping.

Mix gently: Stop mixing once everything is evenly combined. Overmixing can give the baked chicken a firmer texture.

Check the thickness: Keep the chicken layer uniformly thin so the center and edges cook at approximately the same rate.

Cooking spray: For a crispier, more golden topping, lightly spray the panko breadcrumbs with cooking spray just before baking.
