Chicken Pomodoro with tomatoes, green onions, and cream sauce on a white plate
Sorry to be taking so long in between my recipe posts. I have been busy with holiday shopping, gift wrapping and all the wonderful Christmas stuff we do this time of year. But I still try to find time to share with you all the yumminess that goes on in my kitchen!
 
This is another great dish from my favorite magazine, Cuisine at Home! Wonderful chicken recipe, both of my boys loved it. It can be served with anything and I would know! My hubby prefers pasta and the little man is not too crazy about pasta, he prefers potatoes. I prefer veggies or even as a wrap, which is what I did. So get creative with your side dishes but I do promise you will love this one!

Ingredients:
3 boneless skinless chicken breasts
about 1/2 cup flour (for light battering)
3 tbs olive oil
1/2 cup vodka
1 cup chicken broth
2 tbs lemon juice
4 tbs heavy cream
1/2 cup chopped green onion
2/3 cup chopped tomatoes
salt, pepper


Directions:
1. Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise. Season the chicken cutlets with salt and pepper. Place the four in a plate and lightly coat the chicken on both sides.

    This really does look delicious. I love pomodoro sauce at Italian restaurants – I love the flavor of the fresh tomatoes. I definitely want to give this recipe a try. Thanks for sharing on Sweet Indulgences Sunday.
