Chicken Pomodoro


This is a tasty chicken dish that comes together very quickly.  Use the "mis en place" method and you'll have this on the table in no time.  What is "mis en place"?  In Lolly Terms it means "get all your ingredients ready to go before you start cooking"!

4 chicken breast cutlets
2 T vegetable oil
1/4 cup vodka
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
2 T fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup tomatoes, chopped
2 T heavy cream
1/3 cup scallions, minced

Season cutlets with salt and pepper then dust with flour.  Sauté cutlets in oil.  Transfer to a platter; pour off fat from pan.  Deglaze pan with vodka and cook until vodka is nearly gone.

Add broth and lemon juice.  Return cutlets to pan and cook each side 1 minute.  Transfer cutlets to warm plate.

Finish the sauce with tomatoes and cream. Heat through, then pour over cutlets. Garnish with scallions.
