Place chicken breast between layers of plastic wrap and using a meat mallet or bottom of a small havey pan, pount until 1/2 inch thick
dip flattened chicken breast into beaten egg (allowing excess to drip off)
Dredge in breadcrumbs pressing firmly to adhere.

Spray a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray and then add the prepared chicken breast. Cook for about 15 minutes (may be more of less depending on the thickness of your chicken)

In a bowl wisk together olive oil and juice from lemons. Toss with arugula.

Place chicken breast on plate and top with a few red onion slices then top with arugula. Serve with additional lemon wedges.

Variations are endless... you can top with a red sauce instead of the arugula or try sprinkling with parmesean cheese before baking for a twist. You can also add spices for a new twist. Great with rosemary or oregano.
