Combine the basil with the breadcrumbs in a bowl. Soak the chicken in the beaten egg and coat it completely with the breadcrumbs. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, and once the skillet is very hot, add the chicken. Flip it only once, until well cooked and golden, about 5 minutes. Once you have all the fried milanesas with the breadcrumbs, cut them into strips. Heat tortillas on a griddle, and when they are nice and hot, assemble the tacos with the strips of milanesa and the slices of tacos. Serve immediately with a bit of salsa verde; you can heat it beforehand so the tacos don't get cold.
