Ingredients
1 1/4 cups plain dried breadcrumbs 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil 1/3 cup all-purpose flour 2 large eggs, lightly beaten Coarse salt and ground pepper 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about 6 ounces each) 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, plus lemon wedges, for serving 5 ounces baby arugula 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
Directions
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss breadcrumbs and oil until well combined; spread on sheet. Cook, tossing once, until golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl. Place flour and eggs in separate bowls; season with salt and pepper. Place a rack on another rimmed baking sheet.

One at a time, place chicken breasts between two large pieces of plastic wrap. Using a meat mallet or bottom of a small heavy pan, pound until 1/2 inch thick. Coat chicken on both sides with flour (shaking off excess), then dip in eggs (allowing excess to drip off); dredge in breadcrumbs, pressing firmly to adhere.
Bake chicken on rack, without turning, until opaque throughout, 10 to 15 minutes.
