Chicken with White Wine Gravy

Ingredients:
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
¼ cup flour
2 Tbsp olive oil
¼ cup onion, diced finely
½ cup white wine (cooking wine works fine)
1 cup chicken broth
2 Tbsp butter
dash of salt and pepper

*****

Sprinkle the chicken lightly with salt and pepper.  Dredge through the flour until coated.  In a large skillet, heat the olive oil.  Add the chicken and cook over medium-high heat for 4 – 5 minutes per side.  Remove the chicken to a plate and cover with foil.  In the skillet, add the onions and cook until slightly tender (about five minutes).  Pour in the wine.  Stir well to deglaze the bottom of the pan and get all of the flavors mixed in.  Cook for about 2 minutes;  sauce will be starting to thicken.  Pour in the chicken broth and boil for about 2 – 3 minutes.    Stir in butter.  Add chicken back into the pan, just until re-warmed through.
