A creamy, buttery chicken dish inspired by Morton’s Steakhouse, perfect for special occasions or cozy dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup plain all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon fine salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 6 garlic cloves, finely minced
  • ½ cup dry white wine
  • ½ cup low-sodium chicken stock
  • ½ cup heavy whipping cream
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions

  1. Flatten each chicken breast to about ½ inch thick and pat dry.
  2. Mix flour, salt, and pepper on a plate. Lightly coat each chicken breast in the mixture.
  3. Heat 3 tablespoons of butter and olive oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until cooked through. Transfer to a plate.
  4. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter to the pan. Once melted, add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds.
  5. Pour in white wine and chicken stock, scraping the browned bits from the pan and allowing to bubble and reduce.
  6. Stir in heavy cream and parsley, simmer until slightly thickened.
  7. Add chicken back to the pan, spoon sauce over it, and warm through for 1-2 minutes.
  8. Serve chicken on plates, drizzling extra sauce on top and garnishing with lemon wedges.

Notes

Searing the chicken at a high temperature helps create a nice crust. Substitute chicken thighs for a juicier option.
