Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken tenders
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  • Begin by heating a large skillet over medium heat and adding 2 tablespoons of butter.
  • Season the chicken tenders with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet.
  • Once both sides are golden and the chicken is cooked through, remove them from the skillet and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and the minced garlic.
  • Pour in the white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream, then let it simmer gently until it thickens, about 5 minutes.
  • Return the chicken tenders to the skillet, allowing them to coat in the silky sauce for a minute before serving.
  • Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve warm to enjoy the perfect blend of flavors and textures.

Notes

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop to retain the sauce's creaminess.
