Tips:
- Use a large skillet or sauté pan to ensure that the chicken and vegetables have enough room to cook evenly.
- Make sure the chicken is cooked through before adding the sauce. You can check this by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken; it should read 165°F (74°C).
- If you don't have dry white wine, you can substitute chicken broth or water. However, the wine will add a more flavorful sauce.
- Add the almonds at the end of cooking so that they don't burn.
- Serve the chicken amandine immediately over rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes.
