✨How to make the best creamy chicken cutlets?
Recipe details and quantities are in the recipe card below.
- Season your chicken cutlets with salt and pepper, massage to coat, then toss in flour.
- Cook the chicken on both sides until golden brown. Set aside.
- Brown the garlic and finely sliced mushrooms over high heat, stirring frequently.
- Deglaze with white wine and allow to evaporate completely over high heat.
- Add the cream and stir well.
- Transfer the chicken fillets back to the pan.
- Sprinkle with parsley and enjoy!
👩🏻🍳Chef's tip
Allow the white wine to evaporate before adding the cream. Otherwise, you'll end up with a very runny sauce.
❄️Storage
Store - place in an airtight tin in the fridge. They will keep for 2 days.
Reheat - put them in the microwave for a few minutes.

I made this tonight and really enjoyed it! The flavors were subtle but delicious. And it was quick to make, as promised, which is important when you have a toddler at home!
One note: the recipe card says to use heavy cream for the sauce, but the description says to use creme fraiche. Those are two different ingredients with very different consistencies, so you don’t want to get them mixed up. I assumed heavy cream was a translation error and used creme fraiche.

Hi Katherine, thank you for your comment!! I'm so happy you loved the recipe! And you're right, it's an error in the translation, which I have now fixed, thank you for pointing that out.
