Geschnetzeltes (Chicken in Cream Sauce) image

This is an easy quick meal popular in Germany. Veal is traditionally used, but pork or chicken can be used as well. Some regions include sliced mushrooms while others would never consider adding it. The dish is often served over noodles with a side of Dampfkartoffeln (boiled potatoes).

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
1 tablespoon butter or 1 tablespoon cooking oil
2 shallots, minced
3/4 cup dry white wine

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would use less cream next time.

Not a fan. The sauce was too heavy and the chicken was bland.
