Salad
Add the cabbage and carrots to a bowl, add the dressing, knead well by hand for approx. 2 mins.
Crumb coating
Place the breadcrumbs and flour in two separate shallow dishes, and the egg in a deep dish. Season the chicken breasts and toss in the flour in batches, shake off the excess, dip in the egg and then in the breadcrumbs. Press the crumb coating down firmly.
Chicken
Without adding any oil, gently fry the bacon in a non-stick frying pan until crispy. Remove, set aside and wipe the cooking fat from the pan. Add the oil to the same pan, add the chicken breasts, fry over a medium heat for approx. 5 mins. on each side. Remove, carve into slices, serve on top of the salad with the bacon and Parmesan.
