Tender chicken meat is ideal for making chops. Most often they are made from breasts. But this part of the chicken carcass is not as juicy as leg fillets.
To prevent breast chops from becoming dry, it is recommended to cook them in batter. During frying, a dense crispy crust quickly forms on the meat, thanks to which the meat juice remains inside the chop, and it turns out juicy and soft.

How to cook a chicken breast chop in batter
Wash the chicken breast and dry with a paper towel.

Cut into steaks up to two centimeters thick.

Cover a cutting board with cling film and place slices of meat on it. Also cover them with film. This must be done so that the splashes of meat juice do not fly away in different directions when beating the meat.
Using a special kitchen hammer, beat the fillet to a thickness of 0.5-1 cm.

Sprinkle the fillets with salt and pepper. Use a garlic press to squeeze a little garlic onto each piece of meat.

Stack the steaks to marinate slightly. In the meantime, start preparing the batter.

Place an egg in a bowl, add milk, and add salt.

Using the same whisk, make a liquid batter.

Then roll in ground breadcrumbs, which you can make yourself from dried bread.

To prevent the breading from falling off, press the breadcrumbs onto the meat with your palms. Leave the chops on the counter for 10-15 minutes.

Grate the cheese on a medium grater.

Pour vegetable oil into a frying pan, heat it, add butter. You can only use vegetable oil, but remember that meat fried in two types of oil will turn out much tastier.
Place the chops in a well-heated frying pan. Over high heat, without covering with a lid, fry for five minutes until golden brown.

Turn over to the other side. Sprinkle with cheese.
![Chicken breast chop in batter](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/19/1382-otbivnaya-iz-kurinoy-grudki-v-klyare.jpg)
Now reduce the heat, close the pan with a lid, and cook for 8-9 minutes. Usually this time is enough for the chop to be completely cooked.
