Sauteed Chicken Cutlets with Summer Squash

Prep Time10 minutes minutes

Cook Time15 minutes minutes

Servings - 4 servings

Ingredients 

1x2x3x

• 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts trimmed
• 1/2 cup flour
• 1/2 tsp salt and pepper each
• 3 Tbsp olive oil divided
• 1 large zucchini sliced
• 1 large summer squash sliced

Instructions

• Cut the chicken, lengthwise to create thin cutlets. Lightly pound the thicker sections to create an even slice of chicken. Pat dry.
• Add the flour to shallow bowl, then mix in the salt and pepper.
• Dredge both sides of the chicken cutlets into the flour.
• Heat 2 Tbsp olive oil in a large skillet, and sauce the dredged chicken cutlets in a single layer over medium high heat for 2-3 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Set cooked chicken cutlets aside, covered with foil, and cook the remaining cutlets.
• Once the chicken is cooked, add the remaining olive oil to the skillet and saute the sliced zucchini and summer squash for 3 to 5 minutes, per side, or until all cooked and middles become translucent.
• Serve Sauteed Chicken Cutlets with Summer Squash.
