  • Preheat a pan over medium heat and add 3-4 tablespoons of sunflower oil.
  • Dip each side of the chicken slices into breadcrumbs to coat them in a thin layer.
  • Place the chicken in the preheated pan and cook each side until it becomes golden brown, about 5-7 minutes per side.
  • Cut the chicken into smaller pieces and arrange it on top of the salads. Pour the sauce over the top.
