Ingredients

4 servings

For the chicken

2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lb total)
½ tsp fine sea salt
¼ tsp black pepper
2 tbsp tapioca starch
2 tbsp ghee, divided

For the sauce

10 oz cremini mushrooms, thinly sliced
2 tbsp garlic-infused olive oil
1 ½ cups chicken broth
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tsp tapioca starch
1 tbsp cold water
1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
¼ tsp fine sea salt, or to taste

For serving

1 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Halve each chicken breast horizontally to make 4 thin cutlets. Place each cutlet between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet or rolling pin to an even 1/4-inch thickness.
2
Season the cutlets on both sides with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Spread the 2 tbsp tapioca starch on a plate and dredge each cutlet lightly on both sides, shaking off any excess.
