Notes

  • Use gluten-free flour and broth to make this recipe gluten-free.
  • Boneless skinless chicken thighs can be substituted for chicken breasts; adjust cooking time accordingly.
  • Substitute white wine with additional chicken broth or white grape juice if desired.
  • For a spicy kick, add red pepper flakes to the sauce.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat gently in a skillet over low heat, adding chicken broth or cream if sauce thickens too much.
  • Freshly grated Parmesan cheese provides better flavor and melt than pre-grated.
