Chicken Cutlets With Summer Squash And Feta Recipe

Ingredients

4 chicken cutlets (about 1 1/4 pounds total)

Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

All-purpose flour, for dredging

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons capers, plus 2 teaspoons brine

1 1/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth

2 medium summer squashes, cut into 1/2-inch rounds

2 bunches spinach, leaves torn if large (about 12 cups)

4 ounces feta, crumbled

Crusty bread and butter, for serving

Preparation

Season chicken with salt and pepper, then dredge in flour. Heat a large skillet over medium-high; swirl in 1 tablespoon oil. Cook chicken, flipping once, until golden brown in places and just cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Add capers, brine, and broth; bring to a boil, turning chicken a few times. Transfer chicken to a plate; cover to keep warm. Continue to boil sauce until reduced to 1/2 cup, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl; cover.

Return skillet to medium-high; swirl in remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Add squashes, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown in places, 3 to 4 minutes. Add spinach, a few handfuls at a time, and cook, stirring, until just wilted. Stir in feta; season with salt and pepper. Serve, alongside chicken topped with caper sauce, and bread and butter.
