Time 40m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 pinch salt
1 pinch pepper
1 teaspoon butter
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1/4 cup white wine or 1/4 cup chicken stock
1/3 cup whipping cream
1 tablespoon fresh dill
2 teaspoons chopped fresh chives or 2 teaspoons green onions
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
lemon slice (to garnish)
dill sprigs (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Dredge the chicken breasts lightly in flour; season with a pinch each of salt and pepper.
  • In a skillet, heat butter and oil over medium-high heat; cook chicken, turning once, for about 6 minutes or until golden brown and no longer pink inside.
  • Remove from the pan and keep warm.
  • Pour off all the fat from the pan.
  • Pour in the wine and bring to a boil over high heat; cook, stirring to scrape up any brown bits in the pan, for about 1 minute or until reduced and syrupy.
  • Add the cream; boil for about 1 minute or until thick enough to coat a spoon.
  • Stir in the dill, chives, lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Stir any accumulated juices from the chicken back into the pan; pour the sauce over the chicken.
  • Garnish with lemon slices and dill sprigs.
