Eh sure, but I could see a newbie making this recipe, putting too little oil, having it start smoking, then burning the cutlets and undercooking the chicken. That's not interpretation, that's just poor instruction. Take the Serious Eats version. Yes, it's 10x more complicated, but it has photos and careful descriptions and measurements: https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/09/the-best-chicken-parmesan-recipe.html https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/09/the-best-chicken...

> Take the Serious Eats version. Ad ad ad... some irrelevant random video trying to play when I clearly don't want it to. The site is really not about the quality of recipe, though they could be made better via your contribution.

  Yes it is a shame, because their recipes (especially from Kenji López-Alt) are really good. But if you keep one open to read from during cooking, you will see every video they have available playing in the little box.

    The obvious move is to ctrl-c ctrl-v the recipes to the ad-free site ;)

  Serious Eats is one of the best recipe websites. Yes there is ads (have to pay the bills some how), but they dive into the how and why food is made the way it is. Not the fluffy "this is the way grandma used to make it".

You're trying to cut out the middle man in learning how to cook. It doesn't need to be complicated. Everyone who cooks knows the answers to these questions because they can remember that time their oil started smoking or they burnt this or undercooked that. Just start trying it, you'll learn as you go.
