👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Season the chicken cutlets with salt and pepper. Then dredge them in flour.

6. 6Add the chicken stock, scraping up any stuck bits to the bottom of the pan. Give it a good mix and bring it to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer until the sauce is reduced by half and thickened (about 3-4 minutes).
7. 7Whisk in the cream and parmesan and adjust salt and pepper if necessary.
8. 8Return the chicken to the skillet and leave it for another 5 minutes in the sauce or until it is well-cooked and thickens.
