Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half. Toss with a drizzle of olive oil, salt and pepper. Spread on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, until tender and lightly browned.
- While the Brussels sprouts roast, pat the chicken cutlets dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Sear the chicken cutlets for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature 165°F). Remove from skillet and set aside.
- Reduce heat to medium. Add the balsamic vinegar, chicken stock concentrate and 1/4 cup water to the skillet. Stir, scraping up any browned bits. Add the rosemary sprig and let simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove rosemary.
- Slice the demi-baguette in half lengthwise. Rub the cut sides with the garlic clove. Place on a baking sheet and toast in the oven for 5-7 minutes until golden.
- Serve the chicken with roasted Brussels sprouts and garlic bread. Drizzle the balsamic pan sauce over the chicken.
Recipe Tips
For extra flavor, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing.
If you prefer a thicker sauce, let it simmer a bit longer until reduced to your liking.
You can substitute chicken breasts if cutlets are unavailable; just pound them to even thickness.
