Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup vegetable or chicken broth
- 0.5 cup dry white wine
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper.
Step 2
In a large skillet or pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Remove the chicken and set aside.
Step 3
In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
Step 4
Sprinkle the flour over the garlic and butter mixture, whisking constantly for about 1 minute to form a roux.
Step 5
Slowly pour in the white wine and broth, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Bring to a simmer and let it cook for 3-4 minutes, allowing the sauce to slightly thicken.
Step 6
Stir in the heavy cream and lemon juice, and season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
Step 7
Return the seared chicken breasts to the skillet and cover with a lid. Let the chicken cook in the sauce for 8-10 minutes over medium-low heat.
Step 8
Add the broccoli florets to the pot, arranging them around the chicken. Cover and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, until the broccoli is tender and the chicken is fully cooked with an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Step 9
Serve warm, spooning the white wine sauce over the chicken and broccoli for added flavor.
