For an extra crispy crust, try using a combination of all-purpose flour and cornstarch in your dredging mixture. Pounding the chicken breasts to an even thickness ensures they cook evenly. Don't overcrowd the pan when searing the chicken, as this will lower the oil temperature and result in less-crispy chicken. Work in batches if necessary. To add a touch of heat, include a pinch of cayenne pepper to the flour mixture. Serve with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.
