May 5, 2026 by mehdi

Prepare chicken:
Season cutlets with salt and pepper. Lightly dredge in flour, shaking off the excess.
Cook chicken:
Heat oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken for 3–4 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Set aside and keep warm.
Sauté vegetables:
In the same pan, add the remaining butter, onions/shallots, and mushrooms. Cook 5–6 minutes until soft and browned. Add garlic and cook 1 minute more.
Deglaze & make sauce:
Pour in white wine and scrape up the brown bits. Let it simmer 1–2 minutes, then add broth and lemon juice. Simmer 3–4 minutes to slightly thicken. Stir in cream if using.
Return chicken to pan:
Place chicken back in the sauce to heat through. Spoon mushrooms and sauce over top.
Garnish & serve:
Sprinkle with fresh parsley or thyme. Serve with pasta, rice, or mashed potatoes.
