Ingredients

  • 1 pound chicken cutlets
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper, divided
  • 1/2 cup slivered oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, plus 1 tablespoon oil from the jar
  • 1/2 cup shallots, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, roughly chopped, for garnish

Directions

Step 1 -Season the chicken cutlets on both sides with 1/8 teaspoon of the salt and 1/8 teaspoon of the pepper.

Step 2 -In a large skillet over medium heat, add the sun-dried tomato oil.

Step 3 -Add the chicken cutlets to the hot oil and cook, turning them once, until the cutlets are browned and they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 6-8 minutes.

Step 4 -Transfer the cutlets to a plate.

Step 5 -In the same pan over medium heat, add the sun-dried tomatoes and the shallots and cook, while stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step 6 -Increase the heat to high.

Step 7 -Add the wine and cook, while scraping the bottom of the pan to release the browned bits, until the liquid has mostly evaporated, about 2 minutes.

Step 8 -Reduce the heat to medium.

Step 9 -Add the heavy cream, the accumulated juices from the cutlets on the plate, the remaining salt, and the remaining pepper and stir to combine.

Step 10 -Simmer the sauce mixture until it has slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.

Step 11 -Add the cutlets to the pan and coat them with the sauce.

Step 12 -Serve topped with the sauce and garnished with the parsley.
