Preparación

1. 1

   Place the chicken breasts in between 2 sheets of plastic wrap. Using a meat mallet, pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch.

   In a shallow dish, whisk together the flour, garlic powder, thyme, salt, and black pepper.

3. 3

   In another shallow dish, whisk together the eggs.

4. 4

   Dip each chicken breast into the flour mixture, shaking off any excess, then dip into the egg mixture to coat.

   In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and 2 tbsp of butter over medium-high heat.

   Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and place on a plate.

7. 7

   Clean the skillet, add the remaining 2 tbsp of butter, and whisk until melted. Then add one tablespoon of flour and stir constantly until combined.

8. 8

   Reduce the heat to medium-low, add the white wine, and cook for 2 minutes until the alcohol has reduced.

   Add the chicken broth to the skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Leave to simmer for 5 minutes or until the sauce starts to thicken.
