Working with 1 large skinless, boneless chicken breast at a time (2 total), hold a knife parallel to cutting board and cut in half, slicing along a long side to make 4 thin cutlets (if still thick, lightly pound between sheets of plastic wrap until no more than ½” thick). Season cutlets with salt and freshly ground pepper. Place 2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour in a shallow bowl. Add cutlets and turn to coat.
