Whole-grain Dijon mustard mixed into the egg that coats these breaded cutlets gives the chicken a bright, pleasantly sharp flavor. You can use regular Dijon mustard in place of the whole-grain, but add another splash of water when beating the eggs so the mixture has a consistency that lightly but thoroughly coats the cutlets. The freshness and crunch of a cucumber salad dressed simply with lemon and dill is the perfect foil for the pan-fried cutlets.

Tip

Don't skip pounding the cutlets to an even thickness. This allows the cutlets to cook through completely and quickly.

Wow!
I wasn’t sure about this and this dish was easy and incredible! Lots of flavor and a great change up to other chicken breast recipes that can be boring.

Crispy Chicken
Looking to freshen up my line-up -- my sons and grandchildren loved it. Modification I used panko and flaxseed meal as the final coating.
