Please read our\ndisclosure policy\n.\nThis\ncreamy white wine chicken\nis incredibly easy to make on a weeknight but good enough for company! It’s ready in only 30 minutes for an impressive yet simple meal.\nI think you’ll enjoy my popular\nCreamy Garlic Chicken\nrecipe,\nCreamy Mushroom Chicken\n, or\nCreamy Chicken Florentine\nnext for a few more hassle-free skillet chicken recipes.\nWhy you’ll love it\nIf you’re a regular around here, you’ll know that I really enjoy creating creamy chicken recipes. There’s just something so undeniably special about pairing tender chicken with a white wine sauce, flavorful herbs, and a a splash of cream for a\nrestaurant-quality dish\n.\nThis white wine chicken would make a fabulous date night meal, and it also doubles as a fantastic dinner after a long workday! It also happens to be a great and accessible\nchicken recipe for beginners\n, and it’s really satisfying to feel like a gourmet home chef. Who knew the simplicity of this easy white wine sauce for chicken could taste so heavenly?\nWhat you’ll need\nChicken\n– we’re using two boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into four smaller cutlets so they will cook faster\nGarlic powder\n– along with salt & pepper, we’re seasoning the cutlets directly with it to infuse savory flavor\nFlour\n– for dredging and getting that irresistible crust when pan searing and thickening the sauce\nOlive oil and butter\n– for pan frying and making the base of the sauce\nWhite wine\n– use a dry white wine like sauvignon blanc, pinot grigio, or chardonnay. Make sure it’s one you actually enjoy the taste of since its flavor shines, and definitely\ndon’t\nuse a cooking wine.\nChicken broth\n– it adds another deeper, savory dimension to the sauce\nHerbs de Provence\n– it’s fragrant herb blend that includes dried herbs like thyme and rosemary and then lavender for a special touch. It’s wonderful with poultry, so I always keep a jar in my pantry! You should be able to find it at most grocery stores.\nHeavy cream\n– to give the sauce its signature luxurious texture and taste\nPro tip\nAs with any creamy sauce, it’s important to salt this one enough to properly bring out all the delicious flavors.\nHow to make creamy white wine chicken\nThis is an overview with step-by-step photos. Full ingredients & instructions are in the recipe card below.\nSlice the chicken in half lengthwise to make four smaller cutlets. Season them with salt & pepper and garlic powder, then dredge with the flour. Pan fry until lightly golden, and then set aside on a plate. In the skillet, add the wine and chicken broth. Let it bubble for a bit, and scrape up the brown bits.\nAdd the remaining butter and the Herbs de Provence, and simmer. Stir in the cream, and return the chicken to the skillet. Let the sauce thicken and the chicken cook through. Garnish with chopped parsley if using, add extra salt & pepper as needed, and serve right away along with drinking the rest of the bottle of wine!\nTools for this recipe\nCheck out Natasha’s favorite\nkitchen essentials\n, gadgets, and cookware!\nChicken is done at 165F internally. Use an\ninstant read thermometer\nfor perfect results every time.\nThis is my fave Le Creuset\nskillet\npictured, and this budget-friendly\nLodge skillet\nis another good one.\nMeasure out butter easily with this\nbutter dish\n— it has measurement markings right on it.\nSubstitutions and variations\nI would advise against substituting the heavy cream for a lower fat alternative like half-and-half. The sauce is very likely to curdle, and nobody wants that to happen. It also won’t have the desired texture, taste, or richness.\nIf you can’t find Herbs de Provence, Italian seasoning will be a decent substitute. It has a number of the same herby flavors, but keep in mind that it does lack the floral lavender quality.\nYou can definitely use chicken thighs, but you’ll likely have to sear them for longer. Just make sure they’re cooked through to at least 175F (I like to go higher for chicken thighs so they end up nice and tender).\nTry my\nCreamy White Wine Pork Chops\nor\nCreamy White Wine Pork Tenderloin\ninstead.\nWhat to serve with white wine chicken\nFor a starchy option, serve it over pasta like these\nQuick and Easy Garlic Butter Noodles\nor with\nGarlic Mashed Potatoes\nor my\nRoasted Potatoes and Carrots\n. This\nStick of Butter Rice\nis another option.\nYou could also try my irresistible\nGarlic Butter Broccolini\n, sweet corn,\nEasy Roasted Cauliflower\n, or\nSautéed Green Beans\nwith it.\nOr make a side salad for a lighter pairing. Try mixed greens with my\nHomemade Italian Dressing\n.\nLeftovers and storage\nThis creamy chicken is best when freshly made, but leftovers will keep in the fridge for 3-4 days in an airtight container.\nReheat in a small saucepan over a very low heat and slowly so that the sauce doesn’t separate.\nI don’t recommend freezing leftovers. Cream sauces don’t do very well in the freezer.\nI hope you’ll give this creamy white wine chicken recipe a try! Please leave a star rating and review below.

Stir in the cream, and return the chicken to the skillet. Let the sauce thicken and the chicken cook through. Garnish with chopped parsley if using, add extra salt & pepper as needed, and serve right away along with drinking the rest of the bottle of wine\\!\n\n## Tools for this recipe\n*Check out Natasha’s favorite [kitchen essentials](https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/shop\/saltandlavender), gadgets, and cookware\\!*\n\n- Chicken is done at 165F internally. Use an [instant read thermometer](https:\/\/amzn.to\/3ALHCWC) for perfect results every time.\n- This is my fave Le Creuset [skillet](https:\/\/amzn.to\/4gpxLGD) pictured, and this budget-friendly [Lodge skillet](https:\/\/amzn.to\/4dL1asQ) is another good one.\n- Measure out butter easily with this [butter dish](https:\/\/amzn.to\/3TcbxxC) — it has measurement markings right on it.\n\n## Substitutions and variations\n- I would advise against substituting the heavy cream for a lower fat alternative like half-and-half. The sauce is very likely to curdle, and nobody wants that to happen. It also won’t have the desired texture, taste, or richness.\n- If you can’t find Herbs de Provence, Italian seasoning will be a decent substitute. It has a number of the same herby flavors, but keep in mind that it does lack the floral lavender quality.\n- You can definitely use chicken thighs, but you’ll likely have to sear them for longer. Just make sure they’re cooked through to at least 175F (I like to go higher for chicken thighs so they end up nice and tender).\n- Try my [Creamy White Wine Pork Chops](https:\/\/www.saltandlavender.com\/creamy-white-wine-pork-chops\/) or [Creamy White Wine Pork Tenderloin](https:\/\/www.saltandlavender.com\/creamy-white-wine-pork-tenderloin\/) instead.\n\n![a plate with creamy white wine chicken, mashed potatoes, and green beans and corn](https:\/\/www.saltandlavender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/creamy-white-wine-chicken-7-720x1049.jpg)\n\n## What to serve with white wine chicken\n- For a starchy option, serve it over pasta like these [Quick and Easy Garlic Butter Noodles](https:\/\/www.saltandlavender.com\/garlic-butter-noodles\/) or with [Garlic Mashed Potatoes](https:\/\/www.saltandlavender.com\/easy-garlic-mashed-potatoes\/) or my [Roasted Potatoes and Carrots](https:\/\/www.saltandlavender.com\/roasted-potatoes-and-carrots\/). This [Stick of Butter Rice](https:\/\/www.saltandlavender.com\/stick-of-butter-rice\/) is another option.\n- You could also try my irresistible [Garlic Butter Broccolini](https:\/\/www.saltandlavender.com\/garlic-butter-broccolini\/), sweet corn, [Easy Roasted Cauliflower](https:\/\/www.saltandlavender.com\/roasted-cauliflower\/), or [Sautéed Green Beans](https:\/\/www.saltandlavender.com\/sauteed-green-beans\/) with it.\n- Or make a side salad for a lighter pairing. Try mixed greens with my [Homemade Italian Dressing](https:\/\/www.saltandlavender.com\/olive-garden-salad-dressing\/).\n\n## Leftovers and storage\n- This creamy chicken is best when freshly made, but leftovers will keep in the fridge for 3-4 days in an airtight container.\n- Reheat in a small saucepan over a very low heat and slowly so that the sauce doesn’t separate.\n- I don’t recommend freezing leftovers. Cream sauces don’t do very well in the freezer.\n\n![closeup of a skillet with creamy white wine chicken](https:\/\/www.saltandlavender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/creamy-white-wine-chicken-6-720x1080.jpg)\n\nI hope you’ll give this creamy white wine chicken recipe a try!

Sprinkle them with salt and pepper and garlic powder, then dredge them in flour so they’re nicely coated.\n- 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).\n- 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.\n- Add the remaining butter and the Herbs de Provence to the pan, and continue simmering for another 2 minutes.\n- Add the cream and the 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.\n\n- I suggest reheating this recipe at a low heat so the sauce doesn’t separate.\n- Chicken is safe to eat when it has an internal temperature of 165F.

This Stick of Butter Rice is another option. You could also try my irresistible Garlic Butter Broccolini , sweet corn, Easy Roasted Cauliflower , or Sautéed Green Beans with it. Or make a side salad for a lighter pairing. Try mixed greens with my Homemade Italian Dressing . Leftovers and storage This creamy chicken is best when freshly made, but leftovers will keep in the fridge for 3-4 days in an airtight container. Reheat in a small saucepan over a very low heat and slowly so that the sauce doesn’t separate. I don’t recommend freezing leftovers. Cream sauces don’t do very well in the freezer. I hope you’ll give this creamy white wine chicken recipe a try! Please leave a star rating and review below. As always, tag me #saltandlavender on Instagram with your creations. ▢ 2 large chicken breasts ▢ 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 ▢ Chopped fresh parsley, for serving optional 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 the 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. I suggest reheating this recipe at a low heat so the sauce doesn’t separate. Chicken is safe to eat when it has an internal temperature of 165F. Use an instant read thermometer to test for doneness.

Please read our [disclosure policy](https://www.saltandlavender.com/privacy-policy/). This creamy white wine chicken is incredibly easy to make on a weeknight but good enough for company! It’s ready in only 30 minutes for an impressive yet simple meal. I think you’ll enjoy my popular [Creamy Garlic Chicken](https://www.saltandlavender.com/creamy-garlic-chicken/) recipe, [Creamy Mushroom Chicken](https://www.saltandlavender.com/creamy-mushroom-chicken/), or [Creamy Chicken Florentine](https://www.saltandlavender.com/creamy-chicken-florentine/) next for a few more hassle-free skillet chicken recipes. ![creamy white wine chicken in a skillet with a serving spoon](data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%20720%201080'%3E%3C/svg%3E) ![creamy white wine chicken in a skillet with a serving spoon](https://www.saltandlavender.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/creamy-white-wine-chicken-5-720x1080.jpg) ## Why you’ll love it If you’re a regular around here, you’ll know that I really enjoy creating creamy chicken recipes. There’s just something so undeniably special about pairing tender chicken with a white wine sauce, flavorful herbs, and a a splash of cream for a restaurant-quality dish. This white wine chicken would make a fabulous date night meal, and it also doubles as a fantastic dinner after a long workday! It also happens to be a great and accessible chicken recipe for beginners, and it’s really satisfying to feel like a gourmet home chef. Who knew the simplicity of this easy white wine sauce for chicken could taste so heavenly? ## What you’ll need - Chicken – we’re using two boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into four smaller cutlets so they will cook faster - Garlic powder – along with salt & pepper, we’re seasoning the cutlets directly with it to infuse savory flavor - Flour – for dredging and getting that irresistible crust when pan searing and thickening the sauce - Olive oil and butter – for pan frying and making the base of the sauce - White wine – use a dry white wine like sauvignon blanc, pinot grigio, or chardonnay. Make sure it’s one you actually enjoy the taste of since its flavor shines, and definitely don’t use a cooking wine. - Chicken broth – it adds another deeper, savory dimension to the sauce - Herbs de Provence – it’s fragrant herb blend that includes dried herbs like thyme and rosemary and then lavender for a special touch. It’s wonderful with poultry, so I always keep a jar in my pantry! You should be able to find it at most grocery stores. - Heavy cream – to give the sauce its signature luxurious texture and taste ![ingredients for creamy white wine chicken on a counter](data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%20720%201022'%3E%3C/svg%3E) ![ingredients for creamy white wine chicken on a counter](https://www.saltandlavender.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/ingredients-for-creamy-white-wine-chicken-720x1022.jpg) ## Pro tip As with any creamy sauce, it’s important to salt this one enough to properly bring out all the delicious flavors. ## How to make creamy white wine chicken This is an overview with step-by-step photos. Full ingredients & instructions are in the recipe card below. ![pan frying chicken in a skillet](data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%20720%20470'%3E%3C/svg%3E) ![pan frying chicken in a skillet](https://www.saltandlavender.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/how-to-make-creamy-white-wine-chicken-1-720x470.jpg) Slice the chicken in half lengthwise to make four smaller cutlets. Season them with salt & pepper and garlic powder, then dredge with the flour. Pan fry until lightly golden, and then set aside on a plate. In the skillet, add the wine and chicken broth. Let it bubble for a bit, and scrape up the brown bits. ![making creamy white wine sauce for chicken in a skillet](data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%20720%20470'%3E%3C/svg%3E) ![making creamy white wine sauce for chicken in a skillet](https://www.saltandlavender.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/how-to-make-creamy-white-wine-chicken-2-720x470.jpg) Add the remaining butter and the Herbs de Provence, and simmer. Stir in the cream, and return the chicken to the skillet. Let the sauce thicken and the chicken cook through. Garnish with chopped parsley if using, add extra salt & pepper as needed, and serve right away along with drinking the rest of the bottle of wine\! ## Tools for this recipe Check out Natasha’s favorite [kitchen essentials](https://www.amazon.com/shop/saltandlavender), gadgets, and cookware\! - Chicken is done at 165F internally. Use an [instant read thermometer](https://amzn.to/3ALHCWC) for perfect results every time. - This is my fave Le Creuset [skillet](https://amzn.to/4gpxLGD) pictured, and this budget-friendly [Lodge skillet](https://amzn.to/4dL1asQ) is another good one. - Measure out butter easily with this [butter dish](https://amzn.to/3TcbxxC) — it has measurement markings right on it. ## Substitutions and variations - I would advise against substituting the heavy cream for a lower fat alternative like half-and-half. The sauce is very likely to curdle, and nobody wants that to happen. It also won’t have the desired texture, taste, or richness. - If you can’t find Herbs de Provence, Italian seasoning will be a decent substitute. It has a number of the same herby flavors, but keep in mind that it does lack the floral lavender quality. - You can definitely use chicken thighs, but you’ll likely have to sear them for longer. Just make sure they’re cooked through to at least 175F (I like to go higher for chicken thighs so they end up nice and tender). - Try my [Creamy White Wine Pork Chops](https://www.saltandlavender.com/creamy-white-wine-pork-chops/) or [Creamy White Wine Pork Tenderloin](https://www.saltandlavender.com/creamy-white-wine-pork-tenderloin/) instead. ![a plate with creamy white wine chicken, mashed potatoes, and green beans and corn](data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%20720%201049'%3E%3C/svg%3E) ![a plate with creamy white wine chicken, mashed potatoes, and green beans and corn](https://www.saltandlavender.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/creamy-white-wine-chicken-7-720x1049.jpg) ## What to serve with white wine chicken - For a starchy option, serve it over pasta like these [Quick and Easy Garlic Butter Noodles](https://www.saltandlavender.com/garlic-butter-noodles/) or with [Garlic Mashed Potatoes](https://www.saltandlavender.com/easy-garlic-mashed-potatoes/) or my [Roasted Potatoes and Carrots](https://www.saltandlavender.com/roasted-potatoes-and-carrots/). This [Stick of Butter Rice](https://www.saltandlavender.com/stick-of-butter-rice/) is another option. - You could also try my irresistible [Garlic Butter Broccolini](https://www.saltandlavender.com/garlic-butter-broccolini/), sweet corn, [Easy Roasted Cauliflower](https://www.saltandlavender.com/roasted-cauliflower/), or [Sautéed Green Beans](https://www.saltandlavender.com/sauteed-green-beans/) with it. - Or make a side salad for a lighter pairing. Try mixed greens with my [Homemade Italian Dressing](https://www.saltandlavender.com/olive-garden-salad-dressing/). ## Leftovers and storage - This creamy chicken is best when freshly made, but leftovers will keep in the fridge for 3-4 days in an airtight container. - Reheat in a small saucepan over a very low heat and slowly so that the sauce doesn’t separate. - I don’t recommend freezing leftovers.

I tripled the recipe and used Bogle Chardonnay, and served it with brown rice. Just a tip: The sauce is rather on the thin side, so if you like thicker sauce, sprinkle a tablespoon of flour into the cream sauce and whisk before you add back the chicken.

There’s just something so undeniably special about pairing tender chicken with a white wine sauce, flavorful herbs, and a a splash of cream for a restaurant-quality dish. This white wine chicken would make a fabulous date night meal, and it also doubles as a fantastic dinner after a long workday! It also happens to be a great and accessible chicken recipe for beginners, and it’s really satisfying to feel like a gourmet home chef. Who knew the simplicity of this easy white wine sauce for chicken could taste so heavenly? ## What you’ll need - Chicken – we’re using two boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into four smaller cutlets so they will cook faster - Garlic powder – along with salt & pepper, we’re seasoning the cutlets directly with it to infuse savory flavor - Flour – for dredging and getting that irresistible crust when pan searing and thickening the sauce - Olive oil and butter – for pan frying and making the base of the sauce - White wine – use a dry white wine like sauvignon blanc, pinot grigio, or chardonnay. Make sure it’s one you actually enjoy the taste of since its flavor shines, and definitely don’t use a cooking wine. - Chicken broth – it adds another deeper, savory dimension to the sauce - Herbs de Provence – it’s fragrant herb blend that includes dried herbs like thyme and rosemary and then lavender for a special touch. It’s wonderful with poultry, so I always keep a jar in my pantry! You should be able to find it at most grocery stores. - Heavy cream – to give the sauce its signature luxurious texture and taste ![ingredients for creamy white wine chicken on a counter](https://www.saltandlavender.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/ingredients-for-creamy-white-wine-chicken-720x1022.jpg) ## Pro tip As with any creamy sauce, it’s important to salt this one enough to properly bring out all the delicious flavors. ## How to make creamy white wine chicken This is an overview with step-by-step photos. Full ingredients & instructions are in the recipe card below. ![pan frying chicken in a skillet](https://www.saltandlavender.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/how-to-make-creamy-white-wine-chicken-1-720x470.jpg) Slice the chicken in half lengthwise to make four smaller cutlets. Season them with salt & pepper and garlic powder, then dredge with the flour. Pan fry until lightly golden, and then set aside on a plate. In the skillet, add the wine and chicken broth. Let it bubble for a bit, and scrape up the brown bits. ![making creamy white wine sauce for chicken in a skillet](https://www.saltandlavender.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/how-to-make-creamy-white-wine-chicken-2-720x470.jpg) Add the remaining butter and the Herbs de Provence, and simmer. Stir in the cream, and return the chicken to the skillet. Let the sauce thicken and the chicken cook through. Garnish with chopped parsley if using, add extra salt & pepper as needed, and serve right away along with drinking the rest of the bottle of wine\! ## Tools for this recipe Check out Natasha’s favorite [kitchen essentials](https://www.amazon.com/shop/saltandlavender), gadgets, and cookware\! - Chicken is done at 165F internally. Use an [instant read thermometer](https://amzn.to/3ALHCWC) for perfect results every time. - This is my fave Le Creuset [skillet](https://amzn.to/4gpxLGD) pictured, and this budget-friendly [Lodge skillet](https://amzn.to/4dL1asQ) is another good one. - Measure out butter easily with this [butter dish](https://amzn.to/3TcbxxC) — it has measurement markings right on it. ## Substitutions and variations - I would advise against substituting the heavy cream for a lower fat alternative like half-and-half. The sauce is very likely to curdle, and nobody wants that to happen. It also won’t have the desired texture, taste, or richness. - If you can’t find Herbs de Provence, Italian seasoning will be a decent substitute. It has a number of the same herby flavors, but keep in mind that it does lack the floral lavender quality. - You can definitely use chicken thighs, but you’ll likely have to sear them for longer. Just make sure they’re cooked through to at least 175F (I like to go higher for chicken thighs so they end up nice and tender). - Try my [Creamy White Wine Pork Chops](https://www.saltandlavender.com/creamy-white-wine-pork-chops/) or [Creamy White Wine Pork Tenderloin](https://www.saltandlavender.com/creamy-white-wine-pork-tenderloin/) instead. ![a plate with creamy white wine chicken, mashed potatoes, and green beans and corn](https://www.saltandlavender.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/creamy-white-wine-chicken-7-720x1049.jpg) ## What to serve with white wine chicken - For a starchy option, serve it over pasta like these [Quick and Easy Garlic Butter Noodles](https://www.saltandlavender.com/garlic-butter-noodles/) or with [Garlic Mashed Potatoes](https://www.saltandlavender.com/easy-garlic-mashed-potatoes/) or my [Roasted Potatoes and Carrots](https://www.saltandlavender.com/roasted-potatoes-and-carrots/). This [Stick of Butter Rice](https://www.saltandlavender.com/stick-of-butter-rice/) is another option. - You could also try my irresistible [Garlic Butter Broccolini](https://www.saltandlavender.com/garlic-butter-broccolini/), sweet corn, [Easy Roasted Cauliflower](https://www.saltandlavender.com/roasted-cauliflower/), or [Sautéed Green Beans](https://www.saltandlavender.com/sauteed-green-beans/) with it. - Or make a side salad for a lighter pairing. Try mixed greens with my [Homemade Italian Dressing](https://www.saltandlavender.com/olive-garden-salad-dressing/). ## Leftovers and storage - This creamy chicken is best when freshly made, but leftovers will keep in the fridge for 3-4 days in an airtight container. - Reheat in a small saucepan over a very low heat and slowly so that the sauce doesn’t separate. - I don’t recommend freezing leftovers. Cream sauces don’t do very well in the freezer. ![closeup of a skillet with creamy white wine chicken](https://www.saltandlavender.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/creamy-white-wine-chicken-6-720x1080.jpg) I hope you’ll give this creamy white wine chicken recipe a try!

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 the 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. - I suggest reheating this recipe at a low heat so the sauce doesn’t separate. - Chicken is safe to eat when it has an internal temperature of 165F. Use an [instant read thermometer](https://amzn.to/4cS4lxu) to test for doneness. - This recipe also appears in chapter 3 of the Salt & Lavender: Everyday Essentials [cookbook](https://www.saltandlavender.com/cookbook/).
