Ingredients
- 3/4 cup chicken broth
- 1-1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1-1/2 teaspoons gluten free flour or all-purpose if not gluten free
- 1 head garlic cloves separated and peeled
- 1-1/2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 lb chicken breasts pounded thin then sliced in half
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Whisk together chicken broth, Worcestershire sauce, and flour in a small bowl then set aside.
- Slice the root ends off the garlic cloves then cut any larger cloves in half so all the garlic pieces are the same size.
- Heat extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat then add garlic cloves and saute until light golden brown (dark golden brown will taste burnt and bitter) stirring constantly. Remove cloves to a bowl then set aside.
- Season chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper then add to skillet. Saute until golden brown on one side, 2-3 minutes, then flip the chicken and add the chicken broth mixture and toasted garlic cloves.
- Turn the heat to high to bring the liquid to a simmer then place a lid on top, turn the heat down to medium-low, and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, 5-7 minutes.
- Remove chicken from the skillet then turn the heat up to medium-high and simmer sauce until thickened, 3-4 minutes. Spoon sauce and garlic cloves over chicken breasts then serve.
Notes
- I like serving this meal with store-bought mashed potatoes like Bob Evans, and a roasted vegetable.
