Directions
Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper and set aside.
Whisk together eggs and milk in a shallow bowl. In a separate shallow bowl, mix together the bread crumbs, cheese and celery leaves.
Dunk chicken in the egg wash so it is coated well. Place in the bread crumb mixture and press in the crumbs so the chicken is well coated. Set aside.
Place a large saute pan on medium high heat with the olive oil. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown. Flip the chicken over and turn heat down to low. When the second side is golden brown, check for doneness and place on a paper towel to pull off any excess oil.
