LOU'S CHICKEN CUTLETS SICILIAN 
1 lb. chicken cutlets
1/2 cup bread crumbs (Italian style)
1/2 cup dry instant mashed potato flakes
1 tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp. paprika
dash of garlic powder
2 eggs
any desired frying oil or spray (Pam)

Wash and trim cutlets, cut thinner if desired. I like to cut them in half, but not too thin. Set aside.

In a bowl: Mix bread crumbs, potato flakes, grated cheese, paprika and garlic powder (the potato flakes and cheese gives this recipe crispness, and the paprika gives it a nice gold/brown color and flavor...)

Beat eggs. Dip cutlets into eggs, roll them in the crumb mixture, and fry as usual.

Note: I sometimes spray the frying pan with Pam, then a little olive oil for flavor, but that's up to each individual what product you use in the frying pan. I like the coated pans the best, NO STICK... Don't be afraid to experiment with more or less of ingredients for your own flavor (such as pepper, salt, etc)...

These cutlets may be served with vegetables, or used for Chicken Parmesan. In that case, after frying, and set on paper towels, place in a baking pan and cover with your favorite Italian spaghetti sauce and grated Mozzarella cheese. Bake at 375°F for 30 minutes uncovered.
