Steps

30 minutes.

1

Slice the chicken breast into four thin pieces, as thin as possible.
2

In a bowl, combine the flour, salt, paprika, and black pepper.
3

Beat the egg, then add the hot sauce and set aside for later use.
4

In a large skillet, add the vegetable oil and heat over medium. While the oil heats, coat the chicken slices first in the flour and spice mixture, then in the breadcrumbs.
5

Once the oil is hot, fry the chicken cutlets for about 6 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
6

Once all the ingredients are ready, assemble the sandwiches: slice the telera rolls in half, spread mayonnaise on both sides, add the chicken milanesa, then top with papalo, lettuce, and tomato slices.
7

Cut the sandwich in half and serve with your favorite chips.
