A delightful dish of golden-brown chicken cutlets paired with a luscious, garlicky cream sauce, perfect for weeknight dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 thin chicken cutlets
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan (for sauce)
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley or thyme for garnish

Instructions

  1. Season the chicken cutlets generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Dredge each cutlet in flour, shaking off the excess.
  3. Dip the floured cutlets into the beaten eggs, then coat them well in the breadcrumb-Parmesan mixture.
  4. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the cutlets and pan-fry for about 3-4 minutes per side until they are golden brown and crispy.
  5. Remove the chicken and set aside on a plate. In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant.
  6. Pour in the chicken broth, then add the heavy cream and additional Parmesan. Stir to combine and let it simmer until thickened.
  7. Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Let it soak in the flavors for about one minute.
  8. Plate the chicken, garnishing with fresh parsley or thyme.

Notes

For extra flavor, mix some Italian herbs into the breadcrumb-parmesan mixture. You can easily double the sauce if you enjoy an extra creamy finish.
