Ohhh man, who doesn't love some seriously crunchy fried chicken? 
This chicken katsu recipe is a Japanese classic that'll have you licking your fingers clean! It's easier than you think to make that crispy, panko-crusted perfection at home
Ingredients:





Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 2 cups panko breadcrumbs
- Vegetable oil for frying
- Tonkatsu sauce or katsu sauce for serving
- Start by pounding out those chicken breasts until they're an even 1/2-inch thickness all over. This ensures even cooking!
- Set up your dredging station with the flour, beaten eggs, and panko crumbs each in their own shallow dish. Season each with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Time for the battering process! Dredge each chicken breast in the flour, dip it in the eggs, and then thoroughly coat it in the panko crumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
- Heat up 1/2-inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once shimmering hot, fry those panko-crusted chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes per side until deep golden brown and crispy.
- Transfer the chicken katsu to a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Don't they look incredible?
- Serve up your katsu hot and crispy, with tonkatsu or katsu sauce on the side for dipping. A little shredded cabbage salad is the perfect tangy-crunchy counterpart!
