Chicken Cutlet Caprese Salad takes advantage of end-of-summer heirloom tomatoes with lightly pan-fried chicken cutlets, fresh mozzarella, and basil.

Ingredients
4 servings
Instructions
- Cut chicken breasts in half horizontally so you end up with 4 thin pieces of chicken.
- Working with 1 piece of chicken at a time, pound chicken until 1/4-inch thick. Set aside and repeat with the remaining 3 pieces.
- Season with 3/4 teaspoon salt and black pepper, to taste.
- Combine breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese in a medium bowl. In another bowl beat eggs.
- Dip cutlets in egg, then breadcrumbs.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. If cooking in two batches, add half of the butter and olive oil.
- When butter melts, add the cutlets and cook about 4 to 6 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat.
- Slice the chicken cutlets. Arrange the baby greens in the center of the platter. Place the chicken, tomatoes, mozzarella, basil all round.
- If making ahead, cover tight with plastic and keep chilled until ready to eat.
- Or plate them individually if not making a platter, 1 piece chicken, 2 oz cheese and divide the salad.
- Serve with 1 tablespoon vinaigrette (not included in n.i.).
