For the Chicken

Method
 

Cooking Steps
  1. Slice the chicken breasts in half to create cutlets. Mix gluten-free bake mix, parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper in a shallow bowl. Dredge each chicken cutlet until coated.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook the coated chicken cutlets for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and reaching an internal temperature of 165°F.
  3. Melt 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the crushed garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes. Then, pour in chicken stock and whipping cream, stirring well.
  4. Gradually stir in mozzarella cheese and grated parmesan cheese into the sauce until melted and smooth.
  5. Gently add the cooked chicken cutlets into the sauce and simmer for an additional 1-2 minutes, ensuring the chicken is coated and heated through.
  6. Remove from heat and garnish with chopped cilantro or parsley. Serve immediately over pasta, rice, or alongside your favorite sides.

Notes

Be cautious with garlic cooking to avoid bitterness. Check chicken internal temperature for safety. Avoid freezing due to sauce separation. Reheat gently with added liquid for texture restoration.
