Chicken Mintyish

The fresh mint leaves are the key. You can find them in the refrigerated produce area where you get the bags of pre washed baby spinach.

I usually serve it with pasta aglia e olio and sliced tomatoes and onion for a salad, but any carb or veggie of your choice will work.

2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves or 4-6 tenders - cut into bite-size pieces
1 clove garlic, chopped
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup butter or margarine or good olive oil
juice from 1 lemon
1/2 cup chopped fresh mint leaves
¼ cup white wine

Mix together the chicken and the garlic. Put the chicken in the flour and stir until it is covered with the flour.

Heat the oil/butter/margarine in a frying pan big enough to handle the chicken over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook and stir until browned. Add the mint leaves, white wine and lemon juice, fast simmer for about 5 minutes, just until the chicken is cooked through and the wine is reduced. Do not over cook or it will be tough.

SERVE IT UP!! With some good crusty bread and the rest of that white wine!!
