CHICKEN SCALLOPINI
While many have heard of veal scallopini, you can make this Italian dish with most any meat or even vegetables. The trick is to use a demi-glace of the same style -- i.e., a venison demi if using deer. You can 'fake' a demi-glace by reducing an appropriate brown stock and adding a water and flour slurry to thicken. Makes an awesome romantic dinner for two.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, stir together the garlic and butter until well combined. Set aside. Place a chicken breast half on a work surface with the thick side facing to the right (if you're right-handed), and place your left hand down on the chicken breast. Using a very sharp knife, carefully cut the chicken breast from the thick side to about 1/2 inch from the edge of the thin side, in a horizontal cut. Open the cut chicken breast and spread it out like an open book. Using a meat mallet, gently pound the butterflied chicken breast out until it's an even thickness.
- Place the flour into a shallow dish, and dredge each chicken breast on both sides with flour. Melt the garlic butter in a large skillet over medium heat until it stops foaming, and cook each chicken breast until golden brown on both sides, 6 to 8 minutes per side. Sprinkle each breast with salt and pepper. Remove the chicken breasts to a platter, and keep warm.
- Cook and stir the mushrooms in the same skillet as the chicken until the mushrooms have absorbed the remaining butter in the skillet and have begun to turn brown at the edges. Stir in capers, lemon juice, white wine, and chicken demi-glace, and stir to combine. Reduce to a simmer. Adjust salt and pepper again, and stir the parsley into the sauce.
- Remove the chicken breasts to plates, and serve the sauce over the chicken. Garnish each serving with a lemon slice.

CHICKEN SCALLOPINI WITH MUSHROOM SAUCE
I don't remember where I found this recipe, it has been in my recipe box for about 25 years now. It is wonderful for a special occasion dinner, but can also be made up fairly quickly on a weeknight. You can buy sliced mushrooms to use in this to speed it up a bit. This is going to be the main course for my Valentine's Day Dinner this year. I use chicken broth from a 1 litre carton if I don't have any homemade frozen. While it definitely is not diet food you can lighten it up a bit by using half & half instead of heavy cream, but the sauce will be a bit thinner then. While this takes a bit more work than just cooking some chicken breasts it is well worth the effort. You can serve this with pasta or risotto, and some whole green beans with baby carrots.
