Ingredients

• 1 ½ lbs (about 3) skinless, boneless chicken breasts, sliced into cutlets
• Salt and pepper to taste
• ¾ cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 shallot, minced
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• ¼ cup dry white wine (such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio)
• ¾ cup chicken stock
• 1 cup heavy cream
• ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1 teaspoon chili flakes
• ⅓ cup sundried tomatoes, chopped
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil

Instructions

1. Season the chicken cutlets with salt and pepper. Dredge them lightly in the seasoned flour mixed with paprika.
2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter with olive oil. Shake off excess flour and brown the chicken cutlets for about 2-3 minutes on each side. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
3. In the same skillet, sauté the minced shallots and garlic in the remaining butter and oil until fragrant. If necessary, add a bit more oil.
4. Deglaze the pan with white wine, allowing it to reduce for about a minute. Lower the heat and add chicken stock, heavy cream, and Parmesan cheese.
5. Stir in the chopped sundried tomatoes, Italian seasoning, and chili flakes. Simmer until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency, seasoning with additional salt and pepper to taste.
6. Return the chicken cutlets to the skillet, add the fresh basil, and let simmer for about 5 minutes until the chicken is heated through.
