Print Recipe

A savory and elegant garlic butter chicken dish with a golden crust and glossy pan sauce, perfect for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup white wine or chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons 21 Salute Seasoning or poultry seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons fresh parsley, finely chopped

Instructions

  1. Warm a skillet with olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  2. Coat chicken breasts with seasoning and pat gently.
  3. Sear chicken in hot oil for 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown.
  4. Pour in wine or broth to deglaze the pan and scrape the bottom.
  5. Lower heat, add butter and minced garlic, and swirl until the butter dissolves.
  6. Cook until chicken reaches 165°F and sauce thickens, about 2-3 minutes.
  7. Optionally sprinkle parsley on top, serve immediately with pan sauce.

Notes

For a thicker sauce, increase heat briefly while stirring; watch the garlic to prevent burning.
