- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 large onion, finely diced
- 4 large garlic cloves, finely minced
- 1 1/2 tsp dried basil
- 1 lbs white mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup dry red wine (I prefer Trader Joe's Charles Shaw Merlot for the job)
- 1 cup of chicken broth
- 1/4 cup of tomato paste
- Pinch of pepper flakes
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp flour
Directions

- Lower the flame to medium and in the remaining oil, saute onion, garlic, pepper flakes, and basil until onion is soft.
- Add mushrooms and sun dried tomatoes and cook until softened.
- Whisk in wine, chicken broth, and tomato paste and bring to light boil.
- Add chicken and juices back into th (e skillet and bring liquid to full boil.
- Lower the flame to medium low and simmer for 15 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
- Transfer chicken to a platter, keep warm and covered (if using aluminum foil, don't let it touch the chicken because the tomato sauce will cause the aluminum to leave a metallic taste).
- Thoroughly cut butter and flour together and whisk into sauce and simmer, continually whisking until thickened.
