Hello, I'm Chef Wood. Ask me anything about this recipe, whenever you like. Press play, or say “next”, and I'll read you the steps one at a time.
Chef Wood answers only when you ask, so take all the time you need. His answers come from AI and are general cooking guidance.
- Dip pounded cutlets in egg white, then into bread crumbs. Brown cutlets in a non stick pan sprayed with non stick spray, 2 at a time. Brown garlic for 1 - 2 minutes. After all are browned, add lemon juice and scrape brown bits off pan bottom. Add chicken broth and margarine (or Butter Buds). Cover and cook about 20 minutes or until fork tender.
- NOTES : Can add garlic right after chicken is cooked. Can use 1 whole egg instead of whites and substitute fresh bread crumbs for dried. (These notes are by the original poster. I do not know how it affects the CFF%.)
