Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Chicken breasts/cutlets
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Caesar dressing

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese finely grated
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

For breading

  • 2 cups plain breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese finely grated
  • 1 tsp black pepper

Instructions
 

  • If you aren't using cutlets, carefully slice the chicken breast to form thin cutlets
  • Whisk together the dressing ingredients in a bowl
  • On a shallow plate, mix the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, and pepper
  • Dip each slice of chicken into the dressing, coating well
  • Coat with a thin layer of the breadcrumbs mixture
  • Cook for 380 degrees in an air fryer for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown (flipping halfway through)

Notes

  • If you're planning on using the cutlets in a salad, reserve 1/4 cup of the dressing to drizzle over the top
  • These can also be baked in a 400 degree oven for 25 minutes (or until the temperature reaches 165 degrees)
