Based on a recipe from Cuisine at Home magazine.
Ingredients:
1 whole chicken breast
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon capers, drained
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 lemon, thinly sliced
fresh parsley, chopped
Directions:
1. To make cutlets, trim off tenderloins, cut each breast half in two, and pound gently until uniformly 1/4 thick.
2. Season cutlets with salt and pepper, then dust with flour, shaking off the excess.
3. Coat a saute pan with nonstick spray, add vegetable oil, and heat over medium-high.
4. Saute cutlets for 2-3 minutes on one side. Flip the cutlets over and saute the other side 1 to 2 minutes with the pan covered. Transfer cutlets to a warm plate; pour off fat from the pan.
5. Deglaze pan with wine and add minced garlic. Cook until garlic is slightly brown and liquid is nearly gone, about 2 minutes.
6. Add broth, lemon juice and capers. Return cutlets to the pan and cook on each side for 1 minute. Transfer cutlets to the warm plate.
7. Add butter and lemon slices to sauce. Once butter melts, pour sauce over cutlets.
8. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve.
