1 ¾ cups chicken broth for the sauce base

¼ cup heavy cream to add creaminess to the sauce

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce for depth of flavor in the sauce

1 teaspoon mustard powder to enhance the sauce’s tang

1 teaspoon honey for a touch of sweetness in the sauce

½ chicken bouillon cube to boost the savory notes

½ teaspoon onion powder for aromatic seasoning

½ teaspoon oregano part of the herb blend

1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil for cooking the chicken

¾ cup dry white wine (such as Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, or Sauvignon Blanc) for the wine reduction

4 minced garlic cloves for the signature garlic taste

3 tablespoons butter to make the roux

3 tablespoons flour for thickening the sauce

½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese for the creamy, nutty flavor

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice to add a bright finish

Salt and pepper to season the chicken

Instructions

1-First, start by slicing and pounding the 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts to ½ inch thickness for even cooking. Season them with salt, pepper, and 2 teaspoons parsley, then sear in 1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil until golden brown on both sides.

2-Next, add ¾ cup dry white wine to deglaze the pan, scraping up any bits for extra flavor, and cook until the wine reduces. Then, stir in the 4 minced garlic cloves and let them cook until fragrant.

3-After that, make a roux by melting 3 tablespoons butter in the pan and whisking in 3 tablespoons flour until smooth. Gradually incorporate the sauce mixture, which includes 1 ¾ cups chicken broth, ¼ cup heavy cream, 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon mustard powder, 1 teaspoon honey, ½ chicken bouillon cube, and ½ teaspoon each of onion powder, oregano, basil, and parsley.

4-Let the sauce simmer for about 8 minutes to thicken. Stir in ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese and 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice for a creamy finish.

5-Finally, return the chicken to the skillet, cover it with the sauce, and heat through until everything is nicely thickened. Garnish with parsley and serve hot. For adaptations, use plant-based substitutes for vegan versions.
