Ingredients
- 8 boneless thin sliced chicken breast fillets
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- olive oil spray
- 5 cups 1 large head romaine lettuce, chopped
- 1 heirloom tomato
- 1/2 small red onion
- 2 ounces grated feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 1 garlic clove
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 1/2 cup panko
- 1/3 cup finely grated parmesan cheese
Equipment Needed
- Air Fryer
Instructions
- 1
Sprinkle salt evenly on both sides of the chicken cutlets.
- 2
In a wide, shallow bowl, mix together the bread crumbs and grated parmesan cheese.
- 3
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg together with 1 tablespoon of water. Transfer this mixture into a large, flat dish. Dip each cutlet into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off, and then coat them in the breadcrumb mixture.
- 4
Arrange the coated cutlets on a clean surface and generously spray both sides with cooking oil.
- 5
Cook the cutlets in the air fryer at 400°F for 6 to 7 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until the breadcrumbs turn a golden brown and the meat is cooked through with no pink remaining. Distribute the cooked cutlets onto 4 plates.
- 6
Prepare the dressing by mixing together the lemon juice, vinegar, oregano, minced garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Allow this mixture to sit for about 5 minutes so the oregano can absorb some of the liquid. Then, whisk in the olive oil until well combined.
- 7
While the chicken is frying, in a large mixing bowl, combine the lettuce, diced tomato, sliced red onion, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Drizzle the dressing over the salad, toss to combine, and then portion it out over the 4 plates with the chicken, layering it on top of the cutlets.

Finally, using a box grater, grate 1/2 ounce of cheese over each serving of salad for an added touch.
