Calories 289kcal
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 boneless chicken breasts
- 10 large garlic cloves whole
- 3/4 cup dry white wine or chicken stock
- 3/4 cup chicken stock low sodium
- 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried
- salt and pepper to taste will vary depending on salt in chicken stock
Instructions
- Heat large skillet to medium high heat.
- Melt butter and add olive oil.
- Rub olive oil on chicken and liberally sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. This will help form a crust.
- Sear chicken 3-4 minutes on each side. Chicken will release easily from pan when ready to turn. ( It will not be fully cooked but continue to cook in the sauce.)
- Remove chicken to plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
- Reduce heat to medium low. Add whole garlic cloves and saute until lightly brown.
- Sprinkle flour over garlic stirring until no flour is visible.
- Pour in wine and chicken stock. Simmer for 5 minutes until slightly thick. Add thyme. Taste for seasoning. More salt? More pepper? This will vary especially if using low sodium chicken broth.
- Add chicken back to pan and continue to cook for an additional 10 minutes or until internal temp reaches 165 degrees.
- Serve with fresh steamed vegetables, potato or rice.
Notes
To use bone in chicken, thighs or breasts. Simply simmer in the sauce until desired temp of 165 degrees.
