Place chicken between 2 pieces of plastic wrap, with a mallet pound until 1/4" thick. in a shallow dish place the flour and herbs. Dredge the chicken cutlets through the flour mixture and place in a skillet with heated oil. Brown each cutlet until golden and no longer pink. Set aside.
IN THE SAME skillet, add the balsamic vinegar and mushrooms to make a gravy/sauce. The sauce is wonderful on the cutlets OR on mashed potatoes.
Recipe Notes
The following are available from the Olive Twist, online and in stores:
Place cubed chicken into a glass dish, the mushrooms in a separate dish and set aside. Take olive oil and seasoning and blend in a small bowl. Pour half over mushrooms and half over chicken and let marinate for ½ hour. Place chicken on a Kebab skew and repeat. Keep separate from the mushrooms.
Do the same for the mushrooms and set aside.
In a small glass bowl together all ingredients for the glaze.
Grill the chicken Kebab for about 15-20 minutes on medium heat, basting with the balsamic glaze as you turn the kabobs. Remove from heat once centers of the chicken are cooked through.
About 10 minutes after the chicken goes on the grill, place the mushroom Kebab on the grill and brush with the balsamic glaze until the mushroom is cooked to desired tenderness.
Twist: Serve with potato salad, a green garden salad or rice. Change up the oil, or balsamic vinegar to what's in your pantry, or to your taste.
