Equipment

  • oven-safe skillet

Ingredients
  

Chicken Preparation

  • 4-6 pieces boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon chili powder
  • ½ cup dry white wine I used a chardonnay
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • ½ cup cranberries fresh or frozen
  • 3 sprigs fresh rosemary or 1-2 teaspoon dried

Instructions
 

Baking Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C/ 360 degrees F.
  • Heat an oven-safe skillet on the stove over a high temperature with olive oil.
  • Pat the chicken dry with paper towels.
  • Mix the salt, pepper, onion powder, and chili powder together in a bowl and sprinkle half of the seasoning over one side of the chicken breasts.
  • Carefully add the chicken breasts to the skillet and spread them out evenly in a single layer.
  • After 4 minutes, turn the chicken over and season the other side with the rest of the seasoning.
  • Mix the white wine and honey together and add them to the skillet along with the garlic, cranberries, and rosemary.
  • Bake chicken breasts for 25-30 minutes, until they are heated through.
  • Make sure the chicken is cooked properly, particularly in the thickest part of the meat. Stick a meat thermometer into the meat.
  • For best results, rest the boneless chicken breasts for 5 minutes before serving.
  • Serve the chicken along with any extra jus with your favorite side dishes.

Notes

Make sure to check the temperature with an instant-read thermometer, allowing the chicken to rest helps lock in juices.
