  • Set up a dredging station. Add the flour to a dish with a little salt and pepper. I always taste it a little to see if there's enough salt. You can add onion power, garlic powder, even a little oregano.
    In another dish add the eggs and beat until frothy.
    In the last dish add your panko breadcrumbs. You can add a little salt and pepper.
  • Pat the chicken dry. Dredge the chicken in the flour
    mixture, then the egg mixture, then into the panko mixture. set aside.
  • Add the oil to a skillet, heat to medium and fry the chicken, turning to make sure each side is golden brown. Drain on a rack and make your topping.
  • For th topping
  • In a bowl, whisk together the evoo and th red wine vinegar. Add all the ingredients and toss.
  • To finish the dish, place the chicken on each plate and top with the salad mixture. Serve immediately with Tzatziki. Kali Orexi!
