Step-by-Step Instructions

Prepare the chicken: Slice each chicken breast in half horizontally to create four thin cutlets.

Season and coat: Season both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper. Lightly dust with flour, using your fingers to ensure an even coating over the surface.

Sear the chicken: Melt half the butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for about 2.5 minutes per side until golden brown and just cooked through. Remove from the pan, cover, and keep warm.

Sauté mushrooms: In the same skillet, add the remaining butter and increase the heat to high. Add the mushrooms and cook for 4 minutes until they begin to turn golden brown on the edges.

Add aromatics: Stir in the minced garlic and a pinch of salt and pepper. Continue cooking for another minute until both the garlic and mushrooms are golden.
