This dish is all about the sauce-a rich, creamy garlic-lemon creation that’s incredibly easy to make. Simply sauté garlic until fragrant, then stir in chicken stock, sour cream and lemon juice for a luscious result. It’s spooned over chicken cutlets seasoned with warm, aromatic shawarma spices.
Pro tip: Save a bit of sauce for dipping your sides of roasted green beans and dill potatoes, because there’s nothing this sauce can’t do. Enjoy a restaurant-quality meal at home in under 40 minutes!

Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Cut potatoes into 1-inch pieces. Toss with 1 tsp olive oil, salt and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until golden and tender.

Recipe Tips
For extra crispy potatoes, spread them in a single layer without overcrowding.
If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of water or chicken stock to thin it out.
Let the chicken rest for a few minutes after cooking to keep it juicy.
FAQ
Can I use chicken breasts instead of cutlets?
Yes, slice chicken breasts in half horizontally to create thin cutlets or pound them to an even thickness.
What can I substitute for sour cream?
Greek yogurt works well as a substitute for sour cream in this sauce.
Can I make this dish dairy-free?
Use a dairy-free sour cream alternative and omit the butter. The sauce will still be delicious.
