These Chicken Cutlets are great for multiple purposes.  You can use them for Chicken Cutlet Parmesan, by adding sauce and cheese.  But, you can also make amazing sandwiches, or even chicken fingers!  As a sandwich, you can make the standard Chicken Cutlet Parm sandwich, or you want a real treat, toast a ciabatta roll, place your Chicken Cutlet on it with a little mayonnaise, marinated roasted red pepper slices, tomato, lettuce and some fresh mozzarella cheese.    Or, you can always cut the cutlets into strips and  place them on a salad.
