Ingredients

• 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons Wasabi paste
• 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
• 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 4 pieces Lime wedges

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and wasabi paste until well combined. Set aside.

Step 3

In a shallow dish, combine the panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until evenly mixed.

Step 4

Place the all-purpose flour in a separate shallow dish. In a third shallow dish, beat the eggs.

Step 5

Take each chicken breast and pat it dry with paper towels. Lightly coat it with flour, then dip it into the beaten eggs, letting any excess drip off.

Step 6

Spread a thin layer of the wasabi-mayo mixture onto each side of the chicken breast using the back of a spoon or a pastry brush.

Step 7

Press the chicken breast into the panko breadcrumb mixture, ensuring it is evenly coated on both sides.

Step 8

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for 2 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.

Step 9

Repeat with the remaining chicken breasts.

Step 10

Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 12

Serve warm with lime wedges on the side for an extra zing.
