Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into strips
1 ¼ cups white wine, divided
1 ¼ cups chicken broth, divided
¾ cup fresh lemon juice, divided
¾ cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons butter
2 cubes chicken bouillon
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
½ cup heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons cornstarch

Steps:

  • Combine chicken strips, 1/2 cup white wine, 1/2 cup chicken broth, and 1/2 cup lemon juice in a large resealable bag. Seal and place in the refrigerator for 1 hour to marinate.
  • Mix flour, oregano, basil, pepper, and salt in a bowl. Remove chicken strips from the marinade and dredge in the flour mixture. Discard marinade.
  • Pour Parmesan cheese onto a plate. Roll chicken strips in Parmesan cheese.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken strips in batches until browned, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a slow cooker.
  • Pour remaining 3/4 cup white wine, 3/4 cup chicken broth, 1/4 cup lemon juice, bouillon cubes, and garlic over chicken in the slow cooker. Cover and cook on Low until chicken is no longer pink in the center, 4 to 6 hours.
  • Transfer chicken to a plate using a slotted spoon. Drizzle 2 teaspoons melted butter on top. Cover to keep warm.
  • Pour liquid from the slow cooker into a pot; add parsley. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and stir in heavy cream and cornstarch. Simmer until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Pour sauce over chicken.
