How to Make Chicken Breasts With Wine And Cream Reduction

  1. Pat 4 (6-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breasts very dry with paper towels. Gently pound to an even thickness of about ½ inch.
  2. Season chicken generously on both sides with salt, pepper, and 1 teaspoon Sunny Paris seasoning (or your favorite herb blend).
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  4. Lightly dredge chicken breasts in ½ cup all-purpose flour, shaking off any excess.
  5. Sauté chicken for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Reduce heat if browning too quickly.
  6. Remove chicken from pan and set aside on a plate, covering to keep warm.
  7. Add 2 finely chopped shallots to the pan and sauté for 2 minutes until softened.
  8. Pour in ½ cup dry white wine (such as Sauvignon Blanc) and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Increase heat to high and reduce wine until it forms a thick glaze (about 2-3 minutes).
  9. Stir constantly during reduction.
  10. Stir in ½ cup heavy cream and 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard. Season with additional salt, pepper, and Sunny Paris seasoning to taste.
  11. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring until the sauce thickens slightly (about 1-2 minutes).
  12. Stir in 1 cup chopped fresh tomatoes and 1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon.
  13. Return chicken to the pan along with any accumulated juices.
  14. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 2 minutes to heat through.
  15. Serve immediately over fluffy white or brown rice.
