  • 2 Tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

  4. Step: Dredge each chicken cutlet in the flour mixture, shaking off excess.
  5. Step: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  6. Step: Cook chicken for 3 minutes per side until golden brown, then remove to a plate.
  7. Step: Reduce heat, remove excess oil from the pan, and melt the butter.
  8. Step: Add chopped garlic to the butter and cook for 20 seconds, stirring constantly.
  9. Step: Stir in the fresh parsley until fragrant.
  10. Step: Pour in the chicken stock and simmer for 2-3 minutes.
