Golden Chicken Cutlets
While a chicken cutlet is simply a halved chicken breast, this recipe takes it to the next level of flavor. Sun-dried tomatoes play a dual role in this healthy dinner— their infused oil is used to sauté the chicken, while the tomatoes themselves add richness to the creamy sauce.
Ingredients
1 pound chicken cutlets
¼ teaspoon salt, divided
¼ teaspoon ground pepper, divided
½ cup slivered oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, plus 1 tablespoon oil from the jar
½ cup finely chopped shallots
½ cup dry white wine
½ cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Directions
Season the chicken with 1/8 teaspoon of salt and pepper. In a large skillet over medium heat, warm the sun-dried tomato oil. Add the chicken and cook, flipping once, until golden brown and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 165°F, approximately 6 minutes in total. Remove from the pan and set aside on a plate.
Add the sun-dried tomatoes and shallots to the skillet, stirring for about a minute. Turn the heat to high and pour in the wine, deglazing the pan by scraping up any browned bits. Let it cook until most of the liquid evaporates, roughly 2 minutes. Lower the heat to medium, then mix in the cream, any juices released from the chicken, and the remaining 1/8 teaspoon of salt and pepper. Let it simmer for 2 minutes. Return the chicken to the pan, coating it in the creamy sauce. Serve garnished with the sauce and fresh parsley.
