For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce. Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness for quicker and more even cooking. Serve with a side of steamed asparagus or a simple green salad for a complete meal. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a tablespoon of chicken broth or white wine to thin it out.
