Instructions

Cut the chicken fillet into flat pieces no more than 1 cm thick.
Cover the chicken pieces with plastic wrap and pound each piece firmly with a meat hammer on both sides until flattened. Season both sides with salt and ground pepper.
Beat the chicken egg in a bowl and place flour in a shallow dish. Coat each flattened piece in flour, then dip in the beaten egg, then coat in flour again.
Heat the vegetable oil in a pan over medium-high heat for 1-2 minutes until shimmering. Carefully place the chicken pieces in the hot oil and fry for 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown.
Flip each piece and sprinkle grated cheese over the top of each piece. Cover the pan with a lid, reduce heat to medium, and fry for another 5 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 74°C (165°F) and the cheese has melted.
