Lemon Oregano Chicken Scaloppine

Lemon Oregano Chicken Scaloppine

2 T. olive oil
1 lb. chicken cutlets
salt to taste
freshly ground black pepper
1/4 C. flour, for dredging
1/2 C. white wine
1 C. low-sodium chicken broth
1 C. chopped fresh tomatoes
2 T. chopped fresh oregano
1/4 C. fresh lemon juice

Heat the olive oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. While the oil is heating, season the chicken cutlets with salt and pepper and dredge them in flour. Sauté the chicken until golden brown, about 2 minutes on each side. Transfer the chicken to a platter and keep warm. Turn the heat to medium and add the white wine, stirring with a wooden spoon to release any caramelized bits that may be stuck to the pan. Add the chicken broth and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, their juice and the oregano. Add the chicken and any juices that have accumulated on the platter. Simmer for 2 minutes more. Stir in the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Transfer the chicken cutlets to serving plates and spoon the sauce over the top.
