For the Chicken

Instructions
Preparation
- Gather all your ingredients and prep them. Chop the onion, mince the garlic, measure out the Riesling wine and chicken broth, and have your chicken breasts ready.
Cooking
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and brown them on both sides for about 5 minutes each.
- Remove the chicken breasts from the skillet and set them aside.
- In the same skillet, add the chopped onions and minced garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until soft and fragrant.
- Pour in the Riesling wine and chicken broth, stirring well to combine and scrape up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Stir in the thyme, salt, and pepper to taste, then return the chicken to the skillet.
- Cover the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for about 25 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
Notes
For a richer sauce, add a bit of cream towards the end of cooking. Consider adding capers or olives for extra flavor. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives before serving.
