Fried chicken breasts with white wine sauce topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 0.9 kg chicken breasts with skin
- 1/4 cup white wine
- 2 tablespoons grape seed oil
- 1/2 - 3/4 cup flour
- 1 tbsp. salt
- 1 tbsp. ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup finely diced onion or shallot
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
- 3 tbsp (45 g) butter at room temperature
Preparation:
- For the breading, combine flour, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Then sprinkle the chicken pieces with flour on all sides to ensure they are well coated. Heat the grapeseed oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the breaded chicken skin-side down and lightly brown for 4-5 minutes. Then flip the chicken over and brown the other side for another 4-5 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 190°C.
Once the chicken is browned, continue cooking it in the oven until the internal temperature reaches 160–175°F (71–74°C), about 6 minutes. When the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and keep it warm, covered. Drain any excess oil from the pan.
- Return the pan to medium heat, deglaze it with wine, and let it evaporate. Then add the onion, stir, and cook until slightly translucent, 3-4 minutes. Then add the lemon juice and garlic, stir again, and heat through.
Finally, reduce the heat and add the parsley and butter to create a sauce. Pour the sauce over the chicken when serving.
