Main Ingredient Chicken Cutlets
Other Ingredient Currants
Number of People 4
List of Ingredients 2 T olive oil
8 Chicken cutlets (app. 2 pounds)
1 small shallot, minced
1 1/2 c chicken stock
1 tsp Dijon mustard
3/4 c. green pitted Picholine olives, halved lengthwise
2 1/2 T dried currants
2 T capers, drained
1 T cold butter
Description In a very large skillet, heat the oil until shimmering. Lightly season the chicken cutlets with salt and pepper. Add half of the cutlets to the skillet and cook over high heat, turning once, until lightly browned outside and white throughout, about 4 minutes. Transfer the cutlets to a plate. Repeat with the remaining cutlets.

Add the shallot to the skillet and cook over moderate heat until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the stock and cook for 30 second, scraping up the browned bits. Whisk in the mustard and simmer until the stock has reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add the olives, currants, and capers ad simmer over moderately low heat for 1 minute. Return the chicken and any accumulated juices to the skillet and simmer just until warmed through, about 1 minute.\

Transfer the chicken to plates. Off the heat, whisk the butter into the sauce until incorporated. Spoon the olive-currant sauce over the chicken cutlets and serve at once.
