Tex Mex Chicken Cutlets image

A quick and easy dinner, great for the summer does not heat up your kitchen. This is not a very spicy dinner if you like it spicy feel free to change the spices. Also if you use a thick chicken breast you will need to pound it or adjust the cooking time.

1 tablespoon oil

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large non stick skillet over medium high heat. Add onion and garlic, saute, stirring occasionally for about 2 minutes or until softened.
  • Place flour on a plate. Place chicken in flour to coat each side, patting off excess. Add to skillet, saute for 2 minutes per side or until lightly golden.

The chicken should almost be done unless your using a thick boneless breast then you will have to adjust your cooking time. Remove from heat. Stir rice into liquid.
