Ingredients

Chicken

8 boneless thin sliced chicken breast fillets (about 4 ounces each, 1/4 inch thick)
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cup panko (or gluten-free panko)
1/3 cup finely grated parmesan cheese
2 large eggs (beaten)
olive oil spray

Salad

5 cups 1 large head romaine lettuce, chopped
1 heirloom tomato (diced)
1/2 small red onion (chopped)
2 ounces grated feta cheese (grated from 1 block)

Dressing

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 garlic clove (grated)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

Season the cutlets on both sides with salt.
In a shallow bowl combine the bread crumbs and parmesan cheese.
Beat the egg with 1 tablespoon water. Place in a large flat dish. Coat the cutlets with the egg mixture, remove the excess and dip them into crumbs.
Place the cutlets on a work surface and spray both sides generously with oil.
Air fry in batches 400F 6 to 7 minutes turning halfway, until the crumbs are golden brown and the center is no longer pink. Divide on 4 plates.
Make the dressing: Combine the lemon juice, vinegar, oregano, garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon salt and let sit until the oregano has absorbed some liquid, about 5 minutes. Whisk in the olive oil.
While the cutlets are cooking, toss all the lettuce, tomato, red onion and 1/4 teaspoon salt together in a large bowl. Drizzle over the dressing, toss, and divide among the 4 plates of chicken, piling it over the cutlets.
Using a box grater, grate 1/2 ounce of the cheese over each salad.

Notes

Variations:

If you don’t have panko, you can use breadcrumbs.
Swap romaine lettuce for mixed greens.
Add avocado or cucumber for extra vegetables.
