Here's what you need:

4 chicken breast half without skin
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4 cup vodka
1/2 cup low sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1/2 cup tomatoes, chopped
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1/3 cup scallion, minced
1/4 cup all-purpose flour, for dusting board


Here's how to make it:

Season cutlets with salt and pepper then dust with flour. Sauté cutlets in oil, transfer to a platter and pour off fat from pan.

Deglaze pan with vodka away from flame and cook until vodka is nearly gone. Add broth and lemon juice and return cutlets to pan and cook each side for 1 minute. Transfer to a warm plate.

Finish the sauce with tomatoes and cream. Heat through, then pour over the cutlets. Garnish with scallions.
