- 2 Chicken breasts cut in half through the middle
- 1 Onion
- 3 Tablespoons butter divided
- 2 Garlic cloves crushed
- 1/2 Cup flour
- 1 Teaspoon salt
- 1/2 Teaspoon black pepper
- 1 Teaspoon oregano
- 3/4 cup chicken stock
- 1/4 Cup sherry
- 1/3 Cup cooking cream
- 1 Tablespoon corn flour
- 2 Tablespoons water
Instructions
- On a large plate combine the flour, salt, pepper and oregano. Stir to combine. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture coating completely.
- In a large skillet set over medium heat, add two tablespoons of the butter until it melts. Add the chicken and cook each side until well browned. About 5-6 minutes per side. Remove from pan and set aside.
- In the reserved pan, add remaining butter and garlic and let sizzle for a minute. Add the onion and stir well. Cook until the onion is soft, about 8 minutes. Add the sherry and chicken stock and bring to a simmer. Stirring frequently. Reduce heat when it simmers and add the cooking cream. Stir well and add the chicken back to the pan. Coat all the chicken with the sauce, reduce heat to low, cover and leave to cook for about 10 more minutes.
- In a small glass whisk together the corn flour and water. Add this to the sauce to thicken it and stir as it thickens. Remove from heat. Garnish with parsley and extra black pepper if desired.
