recipe

  • Step 1
    Wash & hull the green beans if necessary.
  • Step 2
    Heat a pot of salted boiling water. Add the green beans & cook for 12 min. If using frozen green beans, cook according to the package instructions. Once cooked through, drain them.
  • Step 3
    In a deep plate, add the egg & season with salt & pepper. Whisk with a fork.
  • Step 4
    Add the flour to a second plate. Coat the chicken in the flour, then in the beaten egg.
  • Step 5
    Add the breadcrumbs to a third plate & coat the chicken in the breadcrumbs. For a thicker crust, coat it a second time in the beaten egg mixture, then in the breadcrumbs.
  • Step 6
    Add the breaded chicken to the air fryer basket with the rack. Add a drizzle of olive oil & air fry for 20 min at 180°C, flipping halfway through.
  • Step 7
    Meanwhile, boil a pot of water. In a bowl, mix : the couscous, salt, pepper & a drizzle of olive oil. Pour the same volume of couscous in boiling water. Cover & leave to soak for 5 min. Fluff the couscous with a fork & set aside.
  • Step 8
    Once golden brown & crispy, take the chicken out of the air fryer, then slice it.
  • Step 9
    Serve the breaded chicken with the couscous and green beans*. Re-season to taste & add some fresh herbs, if you have any. Enjoy! *Check out our tips for this step

😋 Gourmet tip

For a truly flavorsome dish, we suggest serving the chicken cutlet with a garlic & herb sauce & replace the green beans with ratatouille to switch thing up.
