For best results, use ONLY freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Parmesan cheese: Infuses the sauce with its fantastic salty, nuttiness.If you’d prefer a lighter option, use evaporated milk mixed with 1 ½ teaspoons cornstarch. Heavy cream: Makes for an ultra-rich, creamy sauce.It allows you to use chicken broth instead of all heavy cream. Cornstarch: Helps thicken the sauce so its lusciously creamy instead of watery.You can use an equal amount (one teaspoon in this case) of granulated bouillon, better than bouillon or one smashed bouillon cube (don’t dissolve in water first). Chicken bouillon: Is my secret ingredient flavor bomb.I always use reduced sodium chicken broth so I can control the salt in the dish and add my secret ingredient of chicken bouillon. Chicken broth: Is more flavorful than just milk or cream and has less calories.A mixture of butter and olive oil when cooking adds extra flavor and the olive oil prevents the butter from burning. Olive oil: Use extra virgin olive oil for superior flavor.You may substitute with olive oil if you wish. Use unsalted butter so we can control the salt. Butter: Is used in the sauce and to sear the chicken.Smashing the garlic helps release its flavor. You will smash about half with the blunt side of your knife. Garlic: Use 10-12 whole garlic cloves.You may also use 4 small chicken breasts pounded to an even thickness or boneless, skinless chicken thighs. You can make your own chicken cutlets by slicing 2 large chicken breasts through the equator or you can purchase packaged pre-sliced cutlets.

The thin cutlets cook more evenly, are more tender and soak up more flavor than whole chicken breasts.
