I often see pre-sliced chicken cutlets in the grocery store, but they are a bit overpriced when you consider how easy it is to slice them yourself. To slice a chicken breast into two cutlets, hold the breast down flat on a cutting board with one hand. With your other hand, cut the chicken in half, holding the knife horizontally, and slicing in between your hand and the cutting board. You should end up with two flat pieces of chicken! If needed, pound them out so that they are even in thickness.
