Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 4 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast Cutlets

- ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ¼ Cup Butter

Instructions
- Heat the avocado oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken on both sides with garlic powder, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Add your chicken cutlets to the skillet and cook on each side until internal temperature is 165F, about 5-8 minutes per side. Remove the chicken to a plate and set aside.
- Add the butter and diced onions to the skillet and cook until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the vodka and let cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the marinara sauce and heavy cream. Cook for a few minutes or until the sauce is heated through.
- Serve the sauce with the chicken cutlets and zucchini noodles, if desired. Top with basil leaves for garnish. Makes 6 servings
Notes
Can I skip the vodka?
Yes! If you do not want to add vodka, I would recommend just skipping it. If you want to add a broth, I would recommend a vegetable broth. I do not recommend adding a broth like chicken or beef broth because that would affect the flavor of the sauce.
