1 pound chicken breasts or veal cutlets (cut thin)
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
2/3 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper
1/4 cup pure olive oil

Pound chicken or veal gently between wax paper ( 1/8 to 1/4-inch thick for veal and 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick for chicken).

In a shallow bowl, combine Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, and garlic powder. Pour 1/2 cup olive oil in another shallow bowl.

Dip each chicken or veal piece into olive oil and let excess drip. Press meat into bread crumb mixture, coating well and set aside until all meat is breaded.

In a heavy non-stick skillet, heat oil over medium heat and saute until golden on both sides. Drain on paper towels and serve with pasta and red sauce.
