Method
- Start by slicing the chicken breast vertically (see video for reference) and set aside

- In a deep dish, add the bread crumbs, parsley and salt and pepper and mix through with your hands to combine
- Dunk a slice of chicken in the egg mixture and then place it in the bread crumb mixture and cover all sides of the chicken. Use your hands to push the mixture into the chicken. Set aside on a clean plate. Repeat with remaining chicken
