- 5 Tablespoons Oil, Divided
- 1/2 whole Onion
- 1 cup, 2-23 teaspoons, 78 pinches Sweet White Wine, Divided Use
- 13 tablespoons, 1- 1/2 teaspoons, 1- 1/4 pinches Chicken Stock
- 6 cloves Garlic
- 1 cup Enoki Mushrooms

- 1 Tablespoon Butter
- 1 Tablespoon Cream
- Lemon Juice (optional)
- Herbs, To Taste (thyme, Oregano, Rosemary, Basil And Parsley)
- Salt And Pepper, to taste
- Season the flour liberally with salt and pepper and put it into a plastic bag.
- Add the chicken breasts to the bag and shake thoroughly to cover the chicken.
- Fry the chicken in 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat until browned on each side, about three to four minutes a side.
- You might need to add another tablespoon of oil halfway through.
- Remove to a separate plate.
- Chop the onion and add it to the hot pan with the third tablespoon of oil.
- Allow to soften before adding 200ml of the white wine, reserving 50ml for later.
- Simmer for a few minutes before adding chicken stock and herbs.
- I sprinkled in a few dashes each of thyme, oregano, rosemary, basil and parsley.
- Once the sauce begins to bubble, return the chicken to the pan and turn the heat up to a medium flame.
- Simmer for fifteen to twenty minutes, turning the chicken occasionally.
- In the meantime, peel the garlic cloves and boil them in water until they are easily punctured with a fork, about ten minutes.
- Remove to the plate that held the chicken earlier.
- Cut the bottom off the enoki mushrooms, if necessary, and wash the mushrooms to get rid of any dirt.
- Add one tablespoon of oil to the pan that held the garlic cloves and, once oil is hot, add the mushrooms.
- Fry for a few minutes, stirring, until softened and slightly brown.
- Remove to a plate.
- Wipe out the pan and use it boil your pasta.
- I had five minute quick-cook pasta, but if you dont, this is when timings could get tricky.
- If the pasta will need more time, turn the temperature down or off under the chicken temporarily.
- Five minutes before the pasta is done, add the mushrooms and cream to the chicken and sauce and stir until everything is heated through.
- Season again and taste.
- You might want to add a splash of lemon juice for brightness.
- Once the pasta is cooked, stir it in with the sauce.
- In the smaller pan, melt the tablespoon of butter and add the garlic cloves.
- Fry until lightly browned on each side.
- Serve the pasta with the chicken on top and a few scattered garlic cloves.
