Step 1
Slice the 2 small chicken breasts in half horizontally to make 4 thin cutlets. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
Step 2
Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through (no pink inside).
Step 3
While the chicken cooks, toast the 4 bread slices until golden and crisp.
Step 4
Toss the 2 cups lettuce, 1 sliced tomato, and 0.5 sliced red onion in a bowl with 1 tbsp mayonnaise and a pinch of salt.
Step 5
Serve the chicken on the toast with the salad on the side, and use the remaining 2 tbsp mayonnaise as a dipping sauce.
