Step 1
Place potatoes on a sheet pan, drizzle with 2 tbsp oil, salt, and pepper. Roast at 425°F for 20 minutes until golden and tender.
Step 2
Pound chicken breasts between plastic wrap until 1/4-inch thick. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Set up three shallow bowls: flour in the first, beaten eggs in the second, panko mixed with 1 tsp dried oregano in the third.
Step 4
Coat each chicken piece in flour, shake off excess, dip in egg, then coat fully with panko, pressing gently so it adheres.
Step 5
Heat 3 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds. Fry chicken 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 6
Toss greens with juice of 1 lemon, 1 tbsp oil, salt, and pepper. Plate schnitzel, potatoes, salad, and lemon wedges.
