Add cauliflower and frozen peas to pasta. Cook 2 minutes longer. Keep warm.
Cut each chicken breast into 3 to 5 slices, holding knife at an angle. (Slices should be about 1/2 inch thick.)
Place chicken in medium bowl or food-storage plastic bag.
Pour 1 tablespoon milk over chicken to moisten.
Add seasoned crumbs (from Chicken Helper box); coat chicken with crumbs.
In 10- or 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the oil over medium heat until butter is melted. Carefully add chicken; cook 4 to 6 minutes or until golden brown on bottom. Reduce heat to medium-low. Turn chicken; cook 4 to 6 minutes longer or until golden brown and no longer pink in center.
