How to make Thin Chicken Cutlets
Chicken cutlets are nothing more than boneless, skinless chicken breasts that have been sliced thin. Most often the cutlets are then pounded even thinner before cooking.
Chicken cutlets can be purchased in your grocery store, but they are pricier than boneless skinless chicken breasts. They’re also very easy to prepare in your own kitchen.
