Quick Question: How do you pan fry breaded chicken breast without burning the breading but making sure the fatter side is cooked all the way through?
Pounded it out (still uneven) and currently brining in buttermilk.
Thanks
Lower the heat,
Use a thermometer,
The thickness of your cut will determine how high or low the cooking flame will be, or should be
Just microwave the cunt, we are British after all

By controlling the heat properly. If the breading burns but the chicken isn't cooked through then your heat was too high.
Better question
How do you keep your bread on your breaded chicken? When it's done frying the breading just falls apart when you try and cut it.

by that point you have already gotten a nice picture for instagram though so its alright if it falls apart
Sous vide the chicken first. Even if you don't have the circulator you can use a well insulated cooler and a thermometer.
I just put a top on the pan.
>how do I not ruin food
turn down the heat
Butterfly the chicken breast.

Brown it in skillet, then transfer it to the oven.

I get ok breading by going rinse -> flour -> egg -> crumbs. when i was a cooking noob i just went egg-> crumbs and the breading fell apart at the slightest touch.
>there are people on /ck/ who can't even make something breaded without it falling apart or burning
finish it in the oven
>>7765255
flour or cornstarch before you batter it, stupid

The original question was cooking a thicker piece of meat through without the outside burning, but nice literacy.
And to OP, fry it until golden on each side, then park it in the oven. That's how I do whole chicken breast. Otherwise just butterfly, and forget the oven, which has the added benefit of more crunchy breading.

You have to let it sit for 10 minutes after breading. America's Test Kitchen agrees.

Make it golden brown then toss the fucker in the oven. Welcome to the real world.
