PAN FRIED CHICKEN MEDALLIONS IN CREAMY BASIL PARMESAN SAUCE
This is a very rich dish. I made it the other night for the family and we loved it. It is a little like alfredo sauce over fried chicken. That's the best description I can give you. Don't eat this if you don't/can't eat lots of fat. It is completely out of this world though. I hope those of you brave enough to try it enjoy it as much as I do.

CHICKEN MEDALLIONS IN WHITE WINE REDUCTION
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.

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.
