   Coat each piece of chicken evenly with flour.

9. 9

   Fry the chicken in the pan.

    Turn the chicken over when it's lightly browned.

    It's tasty when garnished with herbs like basil or parsley, or sprinkled with grated cheese.

    When serving guests, placing the grated cheese in individual portions on the side makes it look a bit fancy.
