Steps:
- Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Toss the potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, the cumin seeds, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Spread in a large baking dish and roast until the potatoes begin to brown, 25 to 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until lightly golden, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the brown sugar, lemon juice and red pepper flakes. Remove the baking dish from the oven, push the potatoes to the sides and arrange the chicken breasts in the middle. Season the chicken with salt and drizzle with the garlic mixture. Return to the oven and bake until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
- Remove from the oven; transfer the chicken to a cutting board and slice. Add the cilantro to the baking dish and toss with the potatoes. Serve the chicken with the potatoes and lemon wedges. Drizzle with the pan juices.

Steps:
- Stack cutlets in a double layer in a 1-gallon freezer bag. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons butter, wine, garlic, and thyme and whisk to combine. Season with pepper. Pour marinade into bag with cutlets and freeze (see below).
- To serve, thaw chicken in refrigerator overnight. Remove cutlets from bag and discard marinade. Gently shake chicken to remove liquid and season with salt. In 2 batches, heat 1 1/2 teaspoons butter and 1 1/2 teaspoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high; add half the cutlets to pan and cook until browned and cooked through, 4 minutes total, flipping halfway through and adjusting heat as necessary to prevent pan from overbrowning. Serve chicken sprinkled with parsley, if desired.

Tips:
- Use fresh garlic for the marinade to get the best flavor. If you don't have fresh garlic, you can use 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder.
- You can use any type of chicken cutlets for this recipe. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs will both work well.
- If you don't have time to marinate the chicken for 30 minutes, you can marinate it for as little as 15 minutes. However, the longer you marinate the chicken, the more flavorful it will be.
- Be sure to grill the chicken over medium heat so that it cooks evenly. If you grill the chicken over too high heat, it will burn on the outside before it is cooked through on the inside.
- Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Garlic marinated chicken cutlets with grilled pota is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal.
