Chicken Scaloppine Like Carino's

Chicken Scaloppine Like Carino's Recipe

I had to try to find a recipe for this. It is scrumptious! From Uncle Phaedrus' website. EDIT 2/18/2013 - Having made this several times, and taking one of the reviews in to account, I've decreased the salt to 1/2 teaspoon and changed the 1 tsp of garlic salt to 1/2 tsp garlic powder. In cooking, I've also made the change to A) dredge the chicken breasts in flour prior to sauteing, and B) remove them to a warmer while making the sauce, then spooning the sauce over the crispy scallops when plating. This is now EVEN BETTER! :)
