You can purchase chicken cutlets or slice the chicken breasts yourself. There are two methods to do this:

Place a boneless chicken breast on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to carefully slice it in half lengthwise. To make it easier, start slicing at the thicker end.
If you prefer, instead of cutting the chicken breasts, you can use a meat mallet to pound them to a 1/4" - 1/2" thickness.
