Notes
To keep the chicken extra juicy, try marinating it in a bit of olive oil and lemon juice before breading. You can use different types of cheese if Swiss is not available; mozzarella or provolone work well too. For a crunchier coating, double coat the chicken by dipping it in egg again after the first breadcrumb coating. If you have leftovers, let them cool down, then place them in an airtight container. They can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three days. For longer storage, consider freezing them.
