While working with 1 piece at a time, cover the chicken with a piece of plastic wrap and using a meat tenderiser, flatten out the chicken into a thin even piece. Repeat with the other piece. Season the chicken with salt and pepp.
  • Add your breadcrumbs onto a plate and mix in the parsley, onion powder and garlic powder. Prepare your breading station. Working with 1 piece of chicken at a time, place the chicken into your flour and cover it well. Transfer the chicken to your beaten eggs and cover it well. Transfer the chicken to your seasoned breadcrumbs and press it in well. Repeat with the 2nd piece.
