Ingredients

    3/4 c pignola (pine) nuts, finely chopped
    1/2 c grated parmesan cheese
    2/4 tsp Poultry seasoning
    3 large chicken breasts, halved and pounded into 1/4″ cutlets
    3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
    2-3 cloves garlic
    1/4 c lemon juice
    1 tbsp capers
    1/2 c low fat sour cream
    freshly ground pepper to taste

Directions

In a shallow bowl, mix parmesan, chopped nuts, and Poultry seasoning. Coat both sides of each cutlet with cheese/nut mixture.

Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Cook cutlets until golden brown and juices run clear, approximately 4 minutes on each side.

Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium-high heat. Add garlic, and saute until golden, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to low, and add lemon juice, capers, and ground pepper. Allow to simmer for about 5 minutes, and then whisk in sour cream. Allow this to simmer for another 5 minutes, remove from heat.

To serve, place chicken cutlets on plates, and spoon about 3 tbsp of sauce over each cutlet.
