Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 °F.
  2. Place chicken in a freezer bag with the air squeezed out, and pound each breast down to ½-inch thickness.
  3. Combine the egg white and evaporated milk in a bowl, and mix well.  In a separate bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and crushed oats, and mix well.

Coat the chicken breasts in flour, and shake off the excess.  Dip the chicken breasts in the egg and milk mixture, and drain off the excess.  Then dip the chicken breasts in the breadcrumb mixture to coat, and shake off the excess.  After all chicken breasts have been coated, discard any leftover breading mixture.
