Categories     Main Course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 large chicken breasts (cut in half lengthwise)
Salt & pepper (to taste)
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Flour (for dredging)
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 tablespoons butter (divided)
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/3 cup chicken broth
1 pinch Herbs de Provence ((or Italian seasoning))
1/2 cup heavy/whipping cream
Fresh chopped parsley, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Cut your chicken breasts in half lengthwise to make 4 thinner cutlets. Sprinkle them with salt and pepper and garlic powder, then dredge them in flour so they're nicely coated.
  • Add the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter to a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, add the chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes/side until golden. Take the chicken out of the pan and set aside (chicken shouldn't be fully cooked yet).
  • Add the wine and chicken broth to the pan and let it bubble for about a minute. Stir to scrape up any bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • Add the remaining butter and the Herbs de Provence to the pan, and continue simmering for another 2 minutes.
  • Add the cream and chicken back into the pan. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for another 5 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened up a bit. Season with extra salt & pepper as needed and sprinkle with fresh parsley if using.

CHICKEN MEDALLIONS IN WHITE WINE REDUCTION



Chicken Medallions in White Wine Reduction image

This was originally a recipe for Beef Tenderloin with Red Wine Reduction that I converted for my daughter who didn't like beef at the time. I serve it with Rissoto and Grilled Asparagus and Carrots. It is a nice easy dinner for 2 on a work night when you don't have a lot of time or energy, but can be multiplied for dinner parties when you want the compliments also without expending a lot of time or energy.

Time 35m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 teaspoons coarse salt
2 teaspoons black pepper
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon tarragon
1 small onion, diced
3/4 cup chicken broth, divided use
1 cup white wine
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 pinch salt and pepper, if needed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
  • Combine the salt, pepper, and garlic powder in a zip closure bag.
  • Very lightly oil the chicken with olive oil.
  • Sprinkle the mixture liberally over all sides of the chicken and press into the meat.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a heavy ovenproof skillet or roasting pan over medium high heat.
  • Sear the chicken for a minute or so on all sides, sprinkle with Tarragon.
  • Add ¼ cup of chicken broth to the skillet (to prevent smoking in the oven and keep meat moist).
  • Transfer skillet to preheated oven and roast chicken for about 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove skillet from oven; transfer chicken to a cutting board, cover with aluminum foil and allow meat to rest. You can prepare up to this point and hold the meat under the foil for 35- 45 minutes if needed.
  • Do not wash skillet or discard the roasting juices and bits. With skillet still hot, add the chopped onion and cook for a minute or so. Add ½ cup chicken broth to the skillet, scraping all the caramelized juices and bits with a spoon.
  • Add the wine and bring to a boil to reduce the volume of the sauce by about half.
  • If holding the final preparation, stop at this point, cover skillet, and turn heat off.
  • Just before serving, slice the chicken into ¾" to 1" medallions.
  • Return skillet to medium high heat, add about 2 tablespoons unsalted butter to the sauce and allow it to melt, taste and if needed adjust with a pinch or salt or pepper.
  • Return the medallions to the hot pan and gently warm them in the sauce until completely cooked.
  • Remove the medallions to warmed platter or serving plate, pour sauce over them, and serve.

CHICKEN WITH WHITE WINE, ONIONS AND HERBS



Chicken With White Wine, Onions and Herbs image

With a little practice and a little added flavor, a humble chicken breast can be anything you want.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     dinner, weekday, main course

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

Chicken breasts
Onions
Butter
White wine
Bay leaves
Thyme
Parsley

Steps:

  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook 2 chopped onions with 2 tablespoons butter and some salt and pepper until the onions soften, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Add the chicken, 1 cup white wine, 2 bay leaves and several sprigs of thyme and parsley. When the liquid boils, lower heat to a simmer; cover and cook chicken for 10 to 15 minutes or until tender and just cooked through.
  • Transfer chicken to a plate and keep warm. Turn heat to high and boil the mixture until it is reduced by three-quarters; it should be fairly thick.
  • Lower heat, stir in 2 tablespoons butter and return the chicken to the pan to reheat and coat with sauce.
  • Adjust seasoning. Garnish: Chopped fresh thyme.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure all of your ingredients are prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
  • Use a good quality white wine: The wine you use will have a big impact on the flavor of the dish, so choose one that you enjoy drinking. A dry white wine like Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio is a good option.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken breasts are very lean, so they can easily become dry and tough if they're overcooked. Cook them over medium heat until they're just cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
  • Reduce the wine slowly: When you're reducing the wine, let it simmer over low heat until it has thickened and become syrupy. This will concentrate the flavors and give the sauce a rich, complex flavor.
  • Season to taste: Once the sauce is finished, taste it and adjust the seasoning as needed. You may want to add some salt, pepper, or herbs.
  • Serve immediately: Chicken medallions in white wine reduction is best served immediately, while the chicken is still hot and the sauce is still warm.

Conclusion:

Chicken medallions in white wine reduction is a classic French dish that is both elegant and easy to make. It's perfect for a special occasion dinner or a weeknight meal. The combination of tender chicken, rich white wine sauce, and flavorful vegetables is sure to please everyone at the table.
