Chicken Scallopini with Lemon, Garlic and Pine Nuts

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1/8 tsp salt

1/8 tsp black pepper

2 large chicken breasts

Olive oil cooking spray

2 tsp butter

1 Tbsp pine nuts, chopped

1 clove garlic, minced

3 Tbsp fresh lemon juice

1/4 cup  chicken broth (preferably fat-free)

1 Tbsp fresh parsley,  chopped

Directions:

Mix together flour, salt and pepper on a large plate. Pound chicken thin and cut into four cutlets. Dredge lightly in flour, coating both sides and patting off any excess.

Coat a large, nonstick skillet with cooking spray; set over high heat. Saute chicken on both sides until nicely browned and firm, about 2-3 minutes per side (saute in batches, if necessary, use more cooking spray but keep it light); remove and set aside.

Add butter, pine nuts and garlic to pan and toss over medium heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Whisk in lemon juice and broth; bring to a simmer.

Return chicken to pan, along with any accumulated juices, just long enough to reheat, about 2 to 3 minutes. Place on dinner plates, top each with sauce, sprinkle with parsley.

Serve with a green vegetable or salad.
