Ingredients
- 4 (4-ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons minced shallots (about 1)

Preparation
- Place each chicken breast half between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap; pound to 1/4-inch thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper.
- Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove chicken and keep warm.
- Reduce heat to medium; add shallots and sauté 1 to 2 minutes or until tender. Add wine and scrape browned bits from pan; cook until wine almost evaporates.
