Instructions
- Combine the sauce ingredients in a large measuring cup with a spout and set aside. Measure out remaining ingredients before beginning.
- Slice the chicken in half lengthwise to create 2-3 thinner slices. Cover with saran wrap and use the textured side of a meat mallet to pound it to ½ inch thick.
- Season each side of the chicken with salt, pepper, and parsley.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken in batches for 4-5 minutes per side, until a golden crust has developed. Set aside.
- Turn the heat off. Add the wine and then set the heat to medium. Use a silicone spatula to clean the bottom and sides of the skillet, the “fond” will add more flavor to the sauce. Bring to a gentle bubble and reduce for 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 2-3 more minutes, until the liquid has reduced by half.
- Add the butter and flour and stir to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes to cook off the raw flour taste.
- Add the sauce mixture (from step 1) in small splashes, stirring continuously. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer and reduce for about 8 minutes.
- Reduce heat to low and gradually sprinkle in the Parmesan cheese, stirring continuously. Stir in the lemon juice.
- Add the chicken back and spoon the sauce on top. Heat through for 5 minutes or until the sauce has reached your desired thickness. Garnish with parsley and serve with mashed potatoes and roasted vegetables of choice!
Notes
- Pro Tips:
- Storage:
- Nutritional information is an estimate and is per serving. There are 4 servings in this recipe.
- Cheese: Grate the cheese from a block as it will melt and taste much better than packaged shredded cheese. I use Belgioioso Parmesan.
- Wine: Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, or Sauvignon Blanc are perfect dry white wines for this recipe. Chicken broth may be used if you don’t cook with wine.
- Skillet Use a wide, 12-inch skillet for this recipe so that the sauce can reduce and thicken properly. (I link to a good one in the Tools For This Recipe section below.)
- Gravy Master: A few drops of Gravy Master can add a darker color to the sauce if desired, this is totally optional.
- Make it with Pork: To make this with Pork Chops instead, try my Garlic Parmesan Pork Chops!
- Make it with Pasta: To make a pasta variation of this dish. make my Garlic Parmesan Chicken Pasta.
- Store in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Leftovers do freeze/reheat well.
