Serves: 4 servings Prep Time: 15 minutes Cooking Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1.5 pounds boneless chicken breast, sliced into cutlets and pounded thin
  • ½ cup all purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 large shallot, diced
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese

Instructions

To make cutlets, cut the boneless chicken breast into slices that are ½ thick. Lay them on a board, cover them with plastic and pound them until they have flattened out to ¼ inch thick slices.

Place the flour, salt and pepper in a shallow dish and combine well.

 Dip the chicken cutlets into the flour mixture, coating both sides.

Place the olive oil and butter into a large skillet and heat over medium heat.

When it starts to bubble add the chicken cutlets to the skillet.

Cook the cutlets 4 minutes on the first side. Turn them over and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Remove the cutlets to a plate.

Add the shallots to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally for 1 minute.

Add the chicken broth, heavy cream, lemon juice,  and lemon zest.

Raise the heat to high to bring the mixture to a boil. Lower the heat to the low setting and simmer for 3 minutes. 

Stir in the parsley and parmesan cheese. 

Add the cutlets to the pan and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes.
