Chicken Scallopini {with Lemon}

Whether you are looking for a quick weeknight meal or an impressive dish you can serve at a dinner party this Chicken Scallopini with Lemon is the perfect meal.  It’s so full of flavor it never disappoints.

This is another family favorite that I’ve been making for years.  I love that I can have it on the table in less than 30 minutes and it’s one that the whole family loves.

I love meals that I know are going to please everyone so all I get when they hear this one is on the menu are happy smiles.

 

Chicken Scallopini {with Lemon}

It’s also a great meal that you can stretch. Tenderizing the chicken not only makes it melt in your mouth delicious it makes the chicken go a lot further. You can feed a lot of mouths without breaking the bank.

This meal couldn’t get more perfect! Impressive, quick, easy, delicious and inexpensive!

Ingredients

  • 2 Boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Pepper
  • Flour for coating chicken
  • Zest from 1 lemon
  • 1 Tablespoon Vegetable oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Butter
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary ,crumbled
  • 1 Clove Garlic ,minced
  • 1/4 Cup White wine
  • 1/2 Cup Chicken broth
  • 1/2 Cup Sour cream

Instructions

  • Place chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound firmly with a meat mallet or rolling pin until they are about 1/4 inch thick. Sprinkle with salt and pepper on both sides then dip in flour to coat. Shake off excess flour.
  • Heat oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken for about 5 minutes and then flip over and cook on other side for 5 more minutes. Sprinkle rosemary and garlic over chicken and shake pan to distribute evenly for about 30 seconds. Add wine and broth. Cook uncovered until the liquid has reduced a little, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Remove chicken to a warm platter. Stir sour and half of lemon zest into the liquid in skillet. Heat over low heat, but do not boil. Pour sauce over scallopini and top with remaining zest. Or you can return chicken to skillet and serve in the skillet.
  • ** Sometimes I double the ingredients for the cream sauce if I want extra to top my pasta with.
  • Serves 4 people

    Look how creamy! This sounds like a perfect weeknight meal for when we want something warm and comforting that needs to be made in a hurry (is it me or is that pretty much every night?) Yum – can’t wait to try it!

      It’s not just you Kathryn! Some nights I wish dinner would just make itself! It always amazes me at how quickly this dish comes together though.
