    SWISS CHICKEN

    List of Ingredients




    2 THIN SLICES SWISS CHEESE (ABOUT 2 OZ.)
    4 4-OZ. CHICKEN CUTLETS ABOUT 1/4-INCH THICK
    2 TBS. ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR
    1/2 TSP. BLACK PEPPER
    1 TBS. BUTTER OR MARGARINE
    1/2 CUP REDUCED-SODIUM CHICKEN BROTH
    1/4 CUP DRY WHITE WINE
    1/4 TSP. DRIED OREGANO

    Recipe



    CUT EACH OF THE CHEESE SLICES IN HALF AND PLACE ONE ON TOP OF
    EACH CUTLET. STARTING WITH THE NARROW END OF THE CUTLET, TIGHTLY
    ROLL THE CHICKEN, JELLY-ROLL-STYLE. TIE EACH CUTLET SECURELY WITH
    KITCHEN TWINE OR STRING.

    ON WAXED PAPER, COMBINE FLOUR AND PEPPER. MIX WELL. PLACE
    CUTLETS IN THE MIXTURE AND GENTLY TOSS OR ROLL TO COAT.

    IN A LARGE NON-STICK SKILLET OVER MEDIUM HEAT, MELT THE BUTTER
    OR MARGARINE. ADD THE CUTLETS TO THE SKILLET AND TURN THEM
    FREQUENTLY UNTIL GOLDEN ON ALL SIDES, ABOUT 3 MINUTES.

    ADD THE CHICKEN BROTH, WINE, AND DRIED OREGANO TO THE SKILLET.
    INCREASE THE HEAT TO HIGH, AND BRING THE MIXTURE TO A BOIL.
    REDUCE THE HEAT TO MEDIUM-LOW AND SIMMER UNTIL THE CHICKEN
    IS COOKED THROUGH AND THE SAUCE IS SLIGHTLY REDUCED AND
    THICKENED, USUALLY ABOUT 10 TO 12 MINUTES.

    PLACE A CUTLET ON EACH SERVING PLATE AND REMOVE THE STRING.
    POUR SEVERAL TABLESPOONS OF THE SAUCE OVER EACH CUTLET AND
    GARNISH WITH CHOPPED PARSLEY AND OREGANO. GREAT SERVED WITH
    PLAIN, STEAMED RICE.
