Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Chicken breasts (boneless, skinless)
- 0.5 cup Dried cranberries
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
- 0.25 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 0.25 cup Fresh orange juice
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme (optional)
Instructions
Slice each chicken breast in half horizontally to create thin cutlets.
In a shallow bowl, mix the flour, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Dredge the chicken cutlets in the flour mixture, coating both sides, and shake off any excess.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken cutlets and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low and add the butter. Allow it to melt.
Stir in the dried cranberries and chicken broth. Let it simmer for 3-4 minutes until the cranberries begin to soften.
Add the orange juice, honey, and fresh thyme (if using). Stir well and let the sauce simmer for another 2-3 minutes to thicken slightly.
Return the chicken cutlets to the skillet, spooning the cranberry sauce over the top. Let the chicken heat through for 2-3 minutes.
Remove from heat and serve the Cranberries Chicken Cutlet warm. Garnish with extra thyme or orange zest, if desired.
