Method

Press the crumbs on firmly and let the cutlets rest 5 minutes before frying.

01
Get set
Take the chicken out of the fridge 15 minutes before cooking. Pat it dry with paper towels. Wash your hands, board and knife after handling raw chicken.
02
Make cutlets
Slice each breast in half horizontally. Pound gently to 1 cm. Season with salt and pepper.
03
Crumb
Dip each cutlet in flour, then egg, then press into the panko. Rest for 5 minutes.
04
Fry
Heat the oil in a pan on medium-high. Fry the cutlets for 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden. Cook until no pink remains and the juices run clear, or 74 °C at the thickest part if you use a thermometer. Drain on a rack.
05
Make the sauce
Stir the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce and sugar together.
06
Build
Butter the bread lightly. Spread mayo on one slice, add cabbage, a cutlet brushed with sauce and the second slice.
07
Cut and serve
Press gently, trim the crusts if you like, and cut in half.
