Tips
- For the best flavor, use high-quality ingredients. This means using fresh chicken breasts, a good quality white wine, and fresh herbs.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken breasts are very tender and can easily become dry if overcooked. Cook them until they are just cooked through, which will take about 10 minutes per side.
- If you don't have white wine, you can substitute chicken broth. However, the sauce will not have as much flavor.
- You can also add other vegetables to the sauce, such as mushrooms, bell peppers, or zucchini.
- Serve the chicken breast with basil wine sauce over rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes.
Conclusion
Chicken breast with basil wine sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover chicken breasts, and it is also a healthy and flavorful meal. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner, give this recipe a try.
