Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Cut each chicken breast lengthwise to create thinner cutlets.
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together the flour, 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese, and salt. Dredge each cutlet in the mixture, coating both sides evenly.
Cooking the Chicken
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter. Let the butter melt completely.
- Carefully place the coated chicken cutlets into the hot skillet, cooking for 4 to 5 minutes per side, until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
Making the Sauce
- Lower the heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet, scraping up any browned bits.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute.
- Pour in the white wine and stir, allowing it to simmer for about 2 minutes.
- Add the chicken broth and herbs, and let the mixture simmer for 5 to 7 minutes to reduce.
- Add the heavy cream, stirring until the sauce thickens, about 2 to 3 minutes.
Final Assembly
- Stir in the fresh spinach until wilted, then add the remaining parmesan cheese.
- Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Nestle the chicken cutlets into the sauce and heat through for 1-2 minutes.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
Serve over pasta or creamy risotto. Pair with a green salad and light vinaigrette.
