Handy Tips
- For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, and herbs for a few hours before cooking.
- Use a good quality Madeira wine for the best flavor in the sauce.
Ingredient Swaps
- Chicken: Use turkey cutlets for a leaner option.
- Wine: If you prefer not to use wine, substitute with additional chicken broth and a splash of balsamic vinegar.
