Recipes with Chicken Cutlets

If you've been a reader of my site for any time, you'll know that I create a lot of recipes using chicken cutlets. I love adding pounded thin chicken breasts to my Weekly Meal Plan every week.

Why? Because these recipes are usually ready in 30 minutes or less. They're also delicious and my family loves them. You can't go wrong with that!

And just so you know, my family's favorite chicken recipe is breaded Italian chicken cutlets. I always try to make extra so I can use them for Chicken Parmesan later in the week.

Why are my Chicken Cutlets Tough?

Most of the time when they're tough it's because you overcooked them. And the reason for that is most likely because they aren't always the same thickness when you start cooking.

This is why it's very important to use a Digital Meat Thermometer while cooking. Chicken is done when it reaches 165° F internally.
