Step by Step Instructions
Preparing the Chicken
The first thing to do is take the chicken breasts and flatten them with a mallet. If you don’t have a mallet, you can also put the chicken in a ziplock bag and use the palm of your hands to press them.
Frying the Chicken
Take two tablespoons of butter and melt in a hot pan. Place the chicken in the pan and brown each side. This will take about 4 minutes per side.
Make the Sauce
Remove the chicken from your pan and melt the last tablespoon of butter with the garlic, Italian seasoning, and what is left of the chicken from frying (ie the dirty pan). Stir constantly to keep it from burning until the butter browns.
Add the white wine and chicken stock. Bring to a boil and simmer 5 minutes. Add the cream and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and stir occasionally until it starts to thicken. Add the chicken until it is fully cooked.
