Time 45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 ½ pounds chicken tenders
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 tablespoon butter
5 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
½ cup dry white wine
2 cups chicken stock
½ cup half-and-half
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons cornstarch
4 teaspoons water

Steps:

  • Season flour with salt and pepper. Dredge chicken tenders in flour mixture until coated.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and butter in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and brown for 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and keep warm.
  • Reduce heat to medium and add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add garlic and saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds, being careful not to burn it.
  • Pour wine into the pan and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add chicken stock and cook until sauce has reduced, about 10 minutes. Add half-and-half, Parmesan cheese, and lemon juice; let reduce for 10 more minutes.
  • Dissolve cornstarch in water and add to the pan. Add chicken and allow to heat through, about 10 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper and serve.
