Ingredients:

1 tsp

Herb (dried)

1

Salt

3 tbsps

Olive

Directions:

1

If you don't have bread crumbs on hand (premade, frozen, then thawed), make them by whirring the fresh bread in the food processor

2

Season with the herbs, if using, and salt and pepper to taste

3

Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board, and, with your fingers, pull out the little fillet (the tenderloin) on the underside of each breast

4

Cut the chicken into strips about 2 inches long and 1/2 inch wide

5

Drizzle the vinaigrette over the chicken pieces on the cutting board and rub it into the chicken with your hands to make the crumbs stick to the chicken

6

Sprinkle the seasoned bread crumbs over the pieces and toss to coat

7

The coating won't be evenly distributed but it really doesn't matter

8

Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering

9

Add the strips and sauté, without moving them, until the crumbs look golden, about 1 minute

10

With tongs, turn the pieces over and sauté the second side until golden, about 3 minutes

11

Reduce the heat to low and continue to sauté, turning the pieces frequently, until the chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes longer
