✔️ This elegant recipe is sure to impress!

🥘 Ingredients

Olive Oil, to cook the chicken in. I use extra virgin olive oil because it is one of the healthiest, nutrient-rich oils to cook with.

Chicken breast tenders, take skinless chicken breasts and cut them lengthwise into ½" pieces.

Green onions provide a mild, pungent flavor to the dish.

Dry white wine has less residual sugar, intensifies the flavors of the rosemary chicken recipe and enhances the aroma.

Fresh rosemary provides fragrant, pine-like flavors to the sauce.

Chicken broth enhances the sauce by providing a mild, savory element. I use this roasted chicken base and mix it with water to make my own broth.

Half and half brings a creamy, richness to the rosemary sauce.

🙋 Recipe FAQ's

Can you use dry rosemary instead of fresh herbs?

Yes, you'll want to only use a teaspoon of dry herb for every tablespoon of the fresh herb.

How do I know my chicken is cooked through?

Cooked chicken should have an internal temperature of at least 165 degrees and not be pink on the inside.

Is there a dairy-free alternative to half and half?

Yes, oat milk or cashew milk would give that creamy feel and would work in this recipe.

💭 Tips

  • Chicken broth can be used in the place of wine to deglaze the pan.
  • Rosemary sprigs will keep refrigerated for up to 2 weeks if wrapped in a damp paper towel and inside a ziplock bag.

📖 Variations

  • Heavy or light cream can be substituted for the half and half.
  • Make it a lemon rosemary chicken recipe by substituting the wine for lemon juice and adding lemon zest as a garnish.

🍽 Equipment

Cutting mat: a surface used to trim any fat from the chicken on.

Kitchen knife: to cut the chicken breasts into tenders.

Large skillet: to prepare the rosemary chicken recipe in.
