Step three: In a separate shallow bowl whisk eggs.
Step four: Next pound your chicken as needed to make them even in size for cooking. Place chicken in egg and allow excess to drip off.
Step five: Now you can place your chicken into your seasoned crackers. Once coated place in your prepared dish. Repeat with each chicken breast.
