  • 2/3 cup apple cider
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • kosher salt and pepper

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Season both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper.
  2. Melt one tablespoon butter in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken to pan; cook 3 minutes on each side, or until done.
  3. Remove chicken from pan.
  4. Add cider and mustard to pan, scraping to loosen browned bits; cook 2-3 minutes or until syrupy.

  • The thinner the cutlet, the quicker it cooks.
