2-3 Chicken breasts (skinless and halved horizontally to make 4-5)-
4 tbsp All-purpose flour
3 tbsp Vegetable oil

In a mixing bowl, add the Pecorino Romano cheese and flour. Whisk until well incorporated.
Add the chicken fillets into the bowl with cheese mixture, then toss until well coated. Remove any excess coating.
Place a skillet on the stove and turn the heat to medium-high. Add butter and oil, then allow them to become hot.

Stir in the Pecorino Romano cheese until completely melted.
Put the chicken fillets back into the skillet, then toss until coated with the sauce. Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top.
