Instructions

1. 1

   Warm the vodka sauce in a saucepan, adding a splash of water if it appears too thick for your liking.

2. 2

   Gently flatten the thicker part of the chicken breast using a meat mallet to achieve a more even thickness. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

3. 3

   Dip the chicken into the beaten egg, then coat thoroughly with breadcrumbs, pressing down with the back of a fork to ensure an even layer.

4. 4

   Shake off any excess and place the breaded cutlets in the air fryer basket or on a baking sheet. Repeat this process with the remaining chicken pieces.

5. 5

   Lightly spray both sides of the chicken with cooking oil, then air fry at 400°F for 7 to 8 minutes, flipping halfway through, in batches if necessary.

6. 6

   Once cooked, ladle some vodka sauce over each cutlet and sprinkle half of the cherry peppers on top.

7. 7

   Add 1 ounce of mozzarella cheese to each cutlet, followed by the remaining spicy cherry peppers. Air fry at 300°F until the cheese is melted and the chicken is thoroughly cooked, which should take about 1 to 2 minutes. Serve immediately.

8. 8

   Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Preheat your oven to 450°F.

9. 9

   Bake the chicken for 20 to 25 minutes, or until it turns golden and is cooked through in the center. There's no need to flip during baking.

10. 10

    After baking, spoon vodka sauce over the cutlets and sprinkle half of the cherry peppers on top.

11. 11

    Place 1 ounce of mozzarella on each cutlet, followed by the remaining spicy cherry peppers.

12. 12

    Return to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted and the chicken is fully cooked, approximately 5 minutes. Serve hot.
