CHICKEN KATSU 
This recipe is the Japanese version of fried chicken. The Panko breading stays light and crispy and keeps the chicken from drying out while frying.

4 chicken breasts, filleted
3-4 eggs
1 cup all-purpose flour
Panko breading (I use Sun Luck)
salt and pepper, to taste

Place flour, eggs, and Panko in three separate bowls/plates. Season each with salt and pepper. Dip each chicken fillet into flour, egg, and Panko, making sure to coat thoroughly with each mixture before moving on. Be sure to press the Panko firmly onto each fillet so that it doesn't flake off in the hot oil.

Deep fry fillets at 350°F until golden brown and cooked through.

Serve immediately with steamed rice and Kikkoman Tonkatsu Sauce. Also great in sandwiches if you have leftovers!

Serves 4.
