Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts, sliced in half lengthwise
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour for dredging
- 2 tablespoon olive oil, divided
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter divided
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 small onion, sliced
- 3 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, minced
- 1 cup heavy/whipping cream
- 3/4 cup milk
- chopped cilantro for garnish
Instructions
- In a small bowl or ramekin, combine salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Sprinkle seasoning on both sides of all 4 chicken cutlets.
- Add flour to a shallow bowl. Dip and dredge the chicken in the flour so both sides are coated.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter.
- When butter has melted, add the chicken cutlets and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Transfer the cutlets to a plate and set aside.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter, garlic, and onions to the pan. Saute for 3 minutes, until onions have softened.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the minced chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, heavy cream, and milk. Whisk together to combine and bring to a gentle simmer.
- Add the browned chicken cutlets back to the pan and cook for 5 more minutes, until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is cooked through.
- Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve.
Notes
- I suggest reheating this recipe at a low heat so the sauce doesn't separate.
- When adding the cream sauce to the pan, make sure it never comes to full boil, only a gentle simmer. Boiling the sauce may cause the cream to curdle.
