Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Season the thin chicken cutlets generously with salt and pepper. Preheat your skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Set up a breading station: in one bowl, place your all-purpose flour; in another, beat the eggs. Dredge each cutlet in flour, tap off excess, then dip in eggs, and coat with breadcrumb-Parmesan mixture.
  3. Heat olive oil in the preheated skillet over medium heat. Add the coated chicken cutlets without overcrowding. Cook for 3–4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  4. In the same skillet, add butter and melt over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant. Pour in the broth and cream, stirring to combine. Simmer for 3–5 minutes until thickened.
  5. Return crispy chicken to the skillet, spoon sauce over chicken, sprinkle additional Parmesan on top, and garnish with parsley or thyme.
  6. Serve the chicken drizzled with the creamy garlic sauce and enjoy with your favorite sides.
