CHICKEN BREASTS - GARLIC SAUTE

Category: Poultry

Makes 4 servings.

4 chicken breast fillets
1 1/4 c. vegetable oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs
1 c. bread crumbs
1 T. garlic powder
4 tsp. cornstarch
salt and pepper
6 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed

Preheat oven to 200F.
Slice each chicken breast in half horizontally to make cutlets 1/2-inch thick.
Combine 1/4 cup oil, minced garlic, and cutlets in zipper-lock bag and refrigerate while preparing remaining ingredients.
Spread flour in shallow dish. In another shallow dish, whisk egg until foamy.
Combine bread crumbs, garlic powder, and cornstarch in third shallow dish.
Remove cutlets from bag and season with salt and pepper.
One at a time, coat cutlets lightly with flour, dip in egg whites, and dredge in crumbs, pressing to adhere.
Place cutlets on wire rack set over baking sheet and let dry 5 minutes.
Heat 1/2 cup oil and 3 smashed garlic cloves in large nonstick skillet over medium heat until garlic is lightly browned, about 4 minutes.
Discard garlic and fry 3 cutlets until crisp and deep golden, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to paper towel-lined plate and place in warm oven.
Discard oil, wipe out skillet, and repeat with remaining oil, garlic cloves, and cutlets.
