Steps

  1. 1

    Begin by preheating two 12-inch nonstick skillets on the stovetop over medium-low heat. As the skillets warm up, season the chicken with salt. Next, prepare a shallow dish with 1/2 cup of flour and another shallow dish with the egg substitute. Coat each piece of chicken first in flour and then in the egg substitute to ensure full coverage.

  2. 2

    Once the pans are heated, generously spray them with olive oil. Place 2 chicken cutlets in each pan and cook until they turn golden brown on both sides, which should take approximately 4 minutes in total. Once done, transfer the cutlets to a serving platter and lightly cover it with foil to retain their warmth.

  3. 3

    Begin by wiping the pans clean using paper towels. Increase the heat to high and place the pans back on the stove. Proceed to spray both pans with olive oil spray. Once the pans are hot, evenly distribute 1 package of mushrooms into each pan. Allow the mushrooms to cook undisturbed for 3 minutes to achieve a golden brown color.
