Instructions

Season chicken cutlets with salt and pepper.
Mix lemon zest, sour cream, chives, dill, and 1 tablespoon onion powder in a bowl; coat chicken thoroughly, then cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or up to overnight.
When ready to cook, combine panko, the remaining 1 tablespoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Press each chicken cutlet into this mixture to coat evenly.
Heat 1/4-inch canola oil in a large skillet to 375 F over medium heat.
Fry chicken in batches for approximately 4 minutes per side until golden brown, adjusting heat as needed; remove excess panko from the skillet between batches.
Transfer fried chicken to a paper towel-lined plate, sprinkle with salt, and serve immediately garnished with chives and a lemon squeeze.
