Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 lb chicken cutlet (I used 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts that I pounded flat to 1/4 inch)
2 shallots, sliced
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 cup white wine
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
1/4 teaspoon saffron thread
1/2 cup heavy cream
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
3 tablespoons fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • Warm the olive oil in a large skillet, over high heat. Season the chicken cutlets with salt and pepper. Cook the chicken until golden and cooked through, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
  • Transfer the chicken to serving plate and tent with foil to keep warm.
  • Turn the heat to medium, add the shallots and the garlic and cook until tender, about 2 minutes.
  • Deglaze the pan with the white wine. Using a wooden spoon,scrape all the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook until the wine is almost evaporated.
  • Add the chicken broth and saffron threads, bring to a simmer and reduce for 10 minutes. Add the cream, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine and simmer for 1 minute to blend the flavors.
  • Pour the sauce over the chicken. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.

I found the sauce to be a bit too thin. I would recommend reducing it for a few minutes longer to thicken it up.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think it would be better served with a side of vegetables or salad to balance out the richness.
