When selecting chicken for this dish, be sure to use cutlets (or trim a larger breast into smaller, thin pieces) so they cook evenly and quickly. Don’t worry about any brown scrapings left in the pan after you remove the chicken. Leave them there! As you add the ingredients for the sauce, the brown pieces will easily come off the pan and add even more flavor to your sauce.
You’ll need to decide what you would like to serve this dish over. In my opinion, the sauce was incredibly tasty but just a little thin to eat it plain.
