Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 4 chicken cutlets, thinly sliced, 600 g.
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs (50 g)
  • Olive oil spray

Instructions

  • Prepare the Chicken Cutlets: Season the chicken cutlets with salt and pepper on both sides.
  • In a shallow bowl, beat the egg and add paprika, mixing well. Dip each chicken cutlet into the egg mixture, ensuring it is well coated.
  • Coat with Panko: In another shallow bowl, place the Panko breadcrumbs. Take each chicken cutlet from the egg mixture and coat it evenly with Panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
  • Cooking in the Air Fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 3 minutes. Place the breaded chicken cutlets in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they are not overlapping. Lightly spray the top of the chicken cutlets with olive oil spray.
  • Cook in the air fryer for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and the breadcrumbs are golden brown and crispy.
  • Serving: Once cooked, remove the chicken cutlets from the air fryer and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve the Weight Watchers Chicken Katsu hot, garnished with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice if desired.
