Instructions

Begin by preparing chicken breasts - place between plastic wrap and pound to even 1/4-inch thickness.

Set up breading station with three shallow dishes: flour, beaten eggs with milk, and panko mixed with Parmesan and seasonings.

Season chicken cutlets with salt and pepper on both sides.

Dredge each chicken cutlet first in flour, shaking off excess.

Dip floured cutlets into egg mixture, ensuring complete coverage.

Press cutlets firmly into panko-Parmesan mixture, coating both sides thoroughly.

Place breaded cutlets on a wire rack and let rest for 10 minutes to set coating.

Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Cook chicken cutlets for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F.

Transfer cooked cutlets to a paper towel-lined plate and keep warm.

Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of oil from skillet and reduce heat to medium.

Add butter to skillet and sauté minced garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Add white wine to deglaze pan, scraping up browned bits from bottom.

Pour in chicken broth and bring to a simmer for 3-4 minutes to reduce slightly.

Add heavy cream and simmer for another 2-3 minutes until sauce begins to thicken.

Whisk in Parmesan cheese until fully melted and sauce is smooth.

If needed, mix cornstarch with 1 tablespoon water and stir into sauce to thicken further.

Add lemon juice and adjust seasonings with salt and pepper to taste.

Return chicken cutlets to the skillet, spooning sauce over them to coat.

Warm through for 2 minutes, allowing flavors to meld together.

Sprinkle with chopped fresh herbs just before serving.

Serve immediately with pasta, vegetables, or your choice of sides.

Drizzle extra sauce over the chicken and sides if desired.

Garnish with additional Parmesan shavings and a lemon wedge.

Offer red pepper flakes on the side for those who enjoy extra heat.
