Instructions

For chicken:

  1. Pound out cutlets if you need to make them equal in size. If not just set aside while you prepare the breading.
  2. In a large high sided frying pan add oil and set to medium-high heat. Keep an eye on the oil so that it does not get too hot while you’re breading your chicken.
  3. In a shallow dish add cornstarch, kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder and cayenne pepper. Whisk to combine.
  4. Lightly coat your chicken cutlets in the cornstarch mixture and set on a plate.
  5. When the oil has reached 350 degrees carefully add the cutlets and fry until golden. About 5 minutes per side.
  6. Do not crowd the pan. So if it’s full with only 2 cutlets do the frying in 2 batches. If the chicken starts to brown too quickly or the oil is smoking turn down the temperature.
  7. Add cooked chicken to a paper towel lined plate and keep warm while you prepare the rest of your sandwich ingredients.

For slaw:

  1. Add all ingredients to a small bowl and toss to combine.

For sandwich:

  1. Lay out a slice of bread, top with the cutlet, cheese, slaw, microgreens or pea shoots and another slice of bread.
  2. Optional: you can melt the cheese on top of the sandwich by popping it under the broiler but I prefer it on the sandwich at room temperature because Gouda doesn't always melt well.
