This is a flavorful way to prepare chicken and using chicken breasts, reducing the butter and eliminating the cream, make this dish healthier than the traditional version too. Play around with the types of mushrooms you use. They add so much flavor to the dish, even if your picky eaters will eat around them. The dish is best served with something like polenta, mashed potatoes or rice so it can sop up all that sauce.

Use this guide and the video below to easily cut a fat chicken breast into 3 thin cutlets

The sauce is so velvety and delicious.

Skip some steps by avoiding coating the chicken in flour before cooking it. Saves some calories and clean-up too.

We prefer a thin cutlet and I find this manner the easiest.
