Ingredients
– 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts (halved lengthwise to make 4 cutlets)
– 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
– salt to taste
– pepper to taste
– flour for dredging
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 tablespoon butter
– 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
– 1/2 cup dry white wine (e.g., sauvignon blanc or pinot grigio) or chicken broth
– 1 tablespoon fresh chopped poultry herb mix (sage, thyme, rosemary)
– 1 cup heavy or whipping cream
– fresh chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
1-First, cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise to create thinner cutlets. Season both sides with garlic powder, salt, and pepper, then dredge them in flour for a nice golden crust.
2-Next, heat olive oil and butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken cutlets for 4-5 minutes per side until they’re golden brown, then set them aside to rest.
3-Now, add the white wine or chicken broth and Dijon mustard to the skillet. Stir it all together and let it bubble for a few minutes to reduce and build flavor.
4-Stir in the heavy cream and chopped fresh herbs, then return the chicken to the skillet. Simmer for about 5 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and the sauce thickens up nicely.
5-Finally, adjust the salt and pepper if needed, and garnish with fresh chopped parsley if you like. For tips on healthy cooking, you might want to visit our page on healthy cooking tips to see how this fits into a balanced diet.
