  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 4 1x

Ingredients

Scale

For the Chicken:
2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts
Salt and black pepper, to taste
3 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, shredded

For the Sauce:
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 beef bouillon cube (or 1 teaspoon bouillon paste)
1 teaspoon low sodium soy sauce (or Worcestershire sauce)
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon mustard powder

For Finishing Touches:
3 tablespoons butter
10 whole garlic cloves
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions

  • Slice the chicken breasts in half lengthwise to create thinner cutlets. Season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
  • In a shallow bowl, mix the flour with the shredded Parmesan cheese. Dredge each piece of chicken in the mixture, coating evenly.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook for 4–5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add the whole garlic cloves and sauté for 3–4 minutes until lightly golden and fragrant.
  • Sprinkle in the flour and stir continuously for 1–2 minutes to form a roux.
  • Gradually pour in the chicken broth while whisking to avoid lumps.
  • Add the bouillon cube, soy sauce, onion powder, thyme, and mustard powder. Stir and let the sauce simmer for 5–7 minutes until slightly thickened.
  • Stir in the heavy cream and mix until smooth and creamy.
  • Return the chicken to the skillet and spoon the sauce over it. Simmer for another 5 minutes to blend flavors.
  • Sprinkle with additional Parmesan cheese if desired and serve warm.
