Cheese Stuffed Chicken Cutlets image

This recipe doesn't take that long to make, so it's perfect for a weeknight. You can reduce the amount of cutlets and cheese if you're cooking for two, but leave the remaining ingredients alone. You can use the extra sauce as a gravy for mashed potatoes or even a small side of pasta. It sounds like a lot of work, but really it's...

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 chicken cutlets, thin
1/2 tsp salt
3 Tbsp all purpose flour
5 Tbsp butter
8 oz mozzarella or fontina cheese slices
1/2 lb mushrooms, sliced thin
1/8 tsp black pepper
1/2 c water
1/2 c milk
1/4 c white wine, not sweet
1 chicken bouillon cube

Steps:

  • 1. Mix together 2 T flour and salt in a pie tin or on a paper plate.
  • 2. Lightly coat the cutlets with the flour mixture, shaking off excess.
  • 3. In a 12" skillet, melt 3 T. butter over medium heat and then place coated cutlets in the pan. (I normally use a stainless steel skillet, not a no-stick pan, so there are plenty of brown bits left for incorporating into the sauce.) Be careful not to overcrowd the cutlets in the pan. You can always add a bit more butter if needed to do a second batch of cutlets.
  • 4. Cook cutlets until lightly browned on both sides. Remove from skillet onto large, flat working surface.
  • 5. Arrange cheese on top of half the cutlets, and then place the other half of the cutlets on top of the cheese, making a sandwich of sorts. Set aside.
  • 6. In the drippings remaining in the skillet, melt the remaining 2 T butter over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook until a medium brown, stirring occasionally.
  • 7. To the mushroom mixture, stir in pepper and 1 T flour until blended well. Gradually stir in water, milk, wine and bouillon.
  • 8. Heat to boiling, stirring to loosen the brown bits from the bottom of the skillet. Make sure the bouillon cube dissolves completely,
  • 9. Return the cutlet "sandwiches" to the pan and return the sauce to a boil. Then reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 5 minutes.
  • 10. Place cutlets and sauce on large platter; garnish with parsley sprigs. (I only do that if I'm cooking for company. Usually, I just place the appropriate amount of cutlets in plates for me and my hubby, and leave off the parsley.)
