How to Make Chicken In A Riesling Sauce
- Heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a wide-based pot or sauté pan over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, thinly sliced, and cook until pale golden brown (about 5 minutes). Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms.
- Cook for another 3 minutes. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
- In a plastic bag, combine 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Add 1.5 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces, and toss to coat evenly. Add the chicken to the pan.
- Cook the chicken for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned. Pour in 1 cup of dry Riesling wine and add 1 teaspoon of dried thyme and 1/2 teaspoon of dried rosemary. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer gently for 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Let the sauce sit for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve over your favorite noodles or pasta.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
