Chicken Katsu
This is one of the easiest and quick dinner meal to serve. Just need to slice, season, dip, coat and fry, and they are ready to be served. If you prefer the healthier version, simply bake them in the oven instead of frying. However, every fried stuffs taste so much better than baked ones 
If you notice the way I double coat the chicken in flour and egg, it is just the way I prefer them to be. However you could just do them once each. There was a story though behind all the double coated and double dipped. I and my mum were running the catering business before. In order to get more chicken katsu pieces, we double coated and double dipped everything, so that the chicken katsu also looks thicker in appearance ;p It was all “business trick”. However, the habit still lives on.
