Print Recipe

A comforting and elegant dish featuring tender chicken simmered in a creamy white wine sauce, perfect for family dinners or entertaining guests.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine (e.g., Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio)
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper. Dredge lightly in flour, shaking off any excess.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. When the butter melts and starts to bubble, add the chicken breasts.
  3. Cook the chicken for about 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  4. Lower the heat to medium, add the remaining butter, and sauté the minced garlic for 1 minute, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
  5. Pour in the white wine and scrape up any browned bits stuck to the bottom of the skillet. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.
  6. Stir in the chicken broth and heavy cream. Simmer for 5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
  7. Place the chicken back into the skillet, spooning some sauce over the top. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).
  8. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve hot with your favorite side dish.

Notes

For a thicker sauce, stir in a small slurry of cornstarch and water. Taste and adjust seasoning before serving. Use a dry white wine for best flavor.
