Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Warm the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, add the garlic, and cook for just 1 minute but don't allow the garlic to turn brown. Off the heat, add the white wine, lemon zest, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, and 1 teaspoon salt and pour into a 9 by 12-inch baking dish.
- Pat the chicken breasts dry and place them skin side up over the sauce. Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil and sprinkle them liberally with salt and pepper. Cut the lemon in 8 wedges and tuck it among the pieces of chicken.
- Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken breasts, until the chicken is done and the skin is lightly browned. If the chicken isn't browned enough, put it under the broiler for 2 minutes. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot with the pan juices.

Steps:
- 1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
- 2. I use a seasoned cast iron skillet, the size that will just hold 4 breasts. I like the way it browns. (You can also use a casserole dish.) Grease the skillet. Place breasts in skillet. .
- 3. Add the cheese slices to cover all of the chicken breasts.
- 4. Mix one can of cream of mushroom soup with wine and sour cream, stir, then pour soup mixture over the cheese.
- 5. I take a rolling pin and run it over the seasoned stuffing in the bag before I open it. I make it just a little less coarse than it is. (Don't roll it into fine crumbs.) Mix the 3 cups of stuffing with the melted butter and spoon on top of the chicken. Spread it out to make a crust.
- 6. Bake in 350 degree oven for 45 minutes COVERED with foil, uncover and bake 15 minutes or until brown and chicken is done. Let stand 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
WINE-BAKED CHICKEN BREASTS
This fills the house with the most delicious aroma. I use skinless chicken breasts to cut fat and low sodium soy sauce to cut salt. It is very easy and is one the first recipes I made using wine. Use any good quality dry red wine that you enjoy drinking. Do not use wine labeled as a 'cooking' wine as it is likely to be a poor quality wine that has had salt added to it.

Tips:
- Choose the right wine: Use a dry white wine for a light and refreshing flavor, or a red wine for a richer, more robust flavor.
- Marinate the chicken breasts: Marinating the chicken breasts in the wine and herb mixture for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, will help to infuse them with flavor.
- Sear the chicken breasts: Searing the chicken breasts in a hot skillet before baking them will help to create a golden brown crust and lock in the juices.
- Use a baking dish with a lid: Baking the chicken breasts in a baking dish with a lid will help to keep them moist and prevent them from drying out.
- Don't overcook the chicken breasts: Overcooked chicken breasts will be dry and tough. Bake them for just until they are cooked through, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast reads 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Conclusion:
Chicken breasts baked in wine is a simple, yet elegant dish that is perfect for any occasion. The chicken breasts are tender and juicy, and the wine sauce is flavorful and delicious. Serve the chicken breasts with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
