How to Make Baked Chicken And Wine
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a microwave-safe bowl.
- In a shallow dish, combine 1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt and pepper.
- Dip each chicken breast into the melted butter, ensuring it's fully coated, then dredge in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
- Place the breaded chicken breasts in a baking dish. Bake, covered, for 20-25 minutes.
- While the chicken is baking, prepare the wine sauce: In a small saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup chopped onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
- Stir in 1/2 cup dry white wine, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, and salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for 5 minutes, or until slightly reduced.
- With about 5 minutes remaining in the chicken's baking time, remove the cover from the baking dish and pour the wine sauce evenly over the chicken.
- Bake, uncovered, for the remaining 5 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
