Chicken cutlets
Baby Spinach
Red Onion
Roasted Red Peppers, you can either make your own roasted red peppers or buy them.

Heavy Cream
Tips and Substitutions
- Save money and buy chicken breasts instead of cutlets. Then, cut the chicken into cutlets on your own.
- Substitute Sun Dried Tomatoes that are not packed in oil. This will reduce the amount of fat in the recipe which is not necessary for Keto but if your not keto this is a good way to reduce the fat.
- Use a dry white wine such as a buttery chardonnay. Pinot grigio or Sauvignon Blanc will work also if that is what you have on hand.
- Substitute chicken broth for the white wine.
- Use light cream in place of heavy cream.
- Sour cream can be used in place of heavy cream.
